Let's See You Walk The Right Path Now

Junior posed Bane with a question in Secret Six #4, regarding who should die: Bane, or the rest of the Six? So what do you expect Bane's answer to be?

Bane said that he only does that which is right*, but what's right in this case? Keep in mind he doesn't know what happened to the last person Junior presented with this choice. If he chooses himself, that's noble, and it's one death rather than five (six, counting Tarantula). Except then he's dead, and it's unlikely his team will having any forewarning that Junior has caught up to them**. If he chooses them, then in theory he has some time to figure out a way to stop Junior and protect his teammates. Still, throwing his team to the wolves doesn't seem right, especially with everyone on the team looking at each other funny already over the card.

* Though he said that while cracking Mammoth in his ornament-things with a pipe.

** Keeping in mind Bane doesn't know the rest of the team was poisoned by Cheshire already.

Aww, I LIKE Bane in this. My hope is that he grabs the knife that Junior has up his nose and goes to town with it.

He has to save Scandal SOMEhow.

Yeah, if it was the rest of the Six, minus Scandal, I think Bane would let them die. But you know he's goin got the mat for her. As long as she doesn't go for seconds on the butter brickle, cause, you know, she was only allowed one treat.

sallyp: Yeah, when I'm not vaguely creeped out by his attempts to be father for Scandal, I dig his straightlacedness in the face of the swirling insanity that is his teammates.

jason: Well, gotta make the kids respect the boundaries on those treats.

Of course, the truly badass answer would be responding "I choose YOU!!" and taking one more surprise shot at Junior.
