I guess I'm reading something different because it outright mentions his strength. It's not directly mentioning prep as an indication of him being ranked where he is at. Let's not take away from one of the best villains in DC. The number 10.

And Bane sure isn't hitting as hard.
Bane hits pretty hard.

He has no venom there, btw. And Red Hood's helmet is pretty tough.

Batman's taser to the face just makes him laugh:

And we don't want to get into who that taser has affected, lol.
Never saw the acid one.
I read King's run, and he wrote a pretty fearsome Bane.
But, come on. Tanking acid to the five and crushing a pretty tough helmet won't justify taking a punch from Superman, nor hurting him.
And while Danny is certainly no Superman, the Fist is up there with characters that can probably knock him off his feet. I bet IF can take, say, Mammoth. Or Rhino. We've seen it take better, at its best.
That Vibranium suit he shredded, for one. It tanked Iron Man blows, Namor hits, you name it.
But I made a Luke Cage vs Bane thread, if anyone wants to argue there. 🙂

I thought it was crystal clear Bane was in the top 10 because of his prep. His strength is like, a minor factor at best.
So the things hes done with prep puts him in the 10th spot? Do you honestly believe its JUST prep? Hes not to far off from Darkseid on this list.

That's literally what the scan says. He has no superhuman powers. Literally spells it out for you. He's peak human, but still human.
He outprepped Batman. The DC god of prep, lol. Several times. That's what the scan says.
Do I believe it? No. But do DC believe it? Yes. And why do they believe it? Read the scan.
