Bane! Batman! Their eternal feud continues in the heart of a Kobra stronghold! Who will live and who will die? And who will triumph in the end as this crime epic races on to its shocking conclusion, Bane co-creators Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan bring their yearlong saga, the latest chapter in the life of the Man Who Broke the Bat, to a climax that you'll never see coming!
Overall, this was a great ending to this maxi-series. Kobra is essentially done, the Naja-Naja was sent to an orphanage and will hopefully stay hidden. So will Valentina rebuild Kobra, or will she start something new? This feels like it's setting up for a new series, as it ends a bit more abruptly than I was expecting. Hopefully we'll get to see more of Bane, preferably with Dixon and Nolan at the helm. Read Full Review
With lots of twists and turns, terrific art and fight scenes galore, this series is ending on a strong note. Highly recommended! Read Full Review
A great concluding chapter to what has been one hell of a fun title! This is one ride Id like to go on again! More Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan, please DC! Read Full Review
Chuck Dixon finishes up his little return to the glory days much as he began it: Squarely in the 90s. Read Full Review
While I was hoping for a big over the top and fun ending to this year long story, what I got instead was a lot of nothing that really came off like there was no real story planned at all because characters just go away in this like it was supposed to continue and I can't get any real kind of satisfaction from that. I love the art and the portrayal of the main character, but this finale was a big letdown. Read Full Review
A frenetic, unfulfilling finale to a daft series. There's a niche market for mindless action that might lap this series up but I'd advise anyone else to steer clear. Read Full Review
Featuring a lot of fun tough-guy dialogue, stakes that aren't explained, consequences that don't seem proportional and a cast of thousands, few of which are named. Read Full Review
Bane: Conquest has been going on for so long, and the story has been so convoluted, that here in the final issue I've completely forgotten what the book is even about. Read Full Review
The best part of this issue meant this overlived story was over. I hate to speak so negatively about a story by Chuck Dixon and Graham Nolan, since I'm a huge fan of their work. In the '90s I remember eagerly anticipating their next Batman story arriving on the shelf )If I only found one Batman book that month, Let it be theirs).
Unfortunately Batman's presence didn't add much, nor did Bane resuming his much-preferred full masked look instead of the lame animated series-inspired one he had most of this series. 12 Issues was just too long for this story. Most readers were bored with it by #4. It really should've ended there, or maybe at #6. Id have to say if I ever see another Bane series, regardless of what classic team does it, I'll more
Thank god this is over.
