Will Bane Be Back From The Dead In Batman? (Spoilers)
In Infinite Frontier #0, we saw the death of Bane, at the hands of The Joker's toxic gas, as discovered by the future Peacekeeper 01.
But in his newsletter last week, James Tynion IV wrote "for people who think that the original Bane is out of the picture entirely, I'd point them back to the caption in Joker #1 where Jim Gordon said he didn't believe he was dead."

The Joker #3 is published tomorrow.
