Article Summary
- Graham Nolan criticizes the new Bane design in Absolute Batman, calling it a "terrible abomination."
- Nolan's comment on Bane design goes viral with over 2.1 million views, sparking debates and reactions online.
- He challenges fans to buy Absolute Batman to support the artist instead of reacting online to his opinion.
- Absolute Batman #9 features a storyline involving Batman's infiltration of the mysterious Ark M facility.
Earlier this week, Bleeding Cool reported on a comment that Bane co-creator Graham Nolan made about the design of the new Bane as seen on the cover of Absolute Batman #9, out in June, in which he said, "As the designer /co-creator of Bane…this is a terrible abomination." And the comment exploded, with more views than any Batman comic, with or without Bane, has ever gotten, over 2.1 million so far.
Yesterday, after being both lauded and mocked, Graham Nolan replied, "After being asked countlessly for my opinion on this version of Bane, I gave an honest answer and broke X! I've been called everything from a "has been", to "bitter", to "old". Okay, the last one may be accurate. Relax! It's just MY opinion! It shouldn't affect how you feel about it. 1.6 MILLION people viewed the post and it seems that many had their own opinion. If every one of you were buying comics instead of reacting to the opinion of one guy, this business would be in better shape. I'm now issuing you all a challenge. Why get mad at me, when you can get even with me? BUY THIS BOOK! Tell your friends and get multiple copies. Prove me wrong with your wallets instead of your keyboards and give this artist a HUGE royalty pay day! Let's get this book to 1.6 million in sales! That'll show me." Of course, this post has only received 36,000 views…

And it's active. So when Bruce tries infiltrate it and distill its secrets, a new villain from Gotham City arrives to deal with the problem…an old adversary of Alfred's…a man known only as Bane.
