    I was wondering if anyone knew specifically why the warden in Pena Dura named him Bane specifically? I know it was after his first murder thanks to his comicvine page, but past that not an awful lot. Does anyone know the answer to this? And if you do could I please have a source?

    Maybe it comes from the phrase,"bane of my existence", which would mean he was a constant annoyance or problem to the warden.

    No idea if that's what actually happened in any of the comics though.
