@jashro44: LOL Wrong thread and wrongs feats. :)
Conan with no Venom can free fall onto a solid wood cart from a good 500 feet drop just fine.

Elasti girl of the Doom Patrol(the one who can grow dozens and hundreds of feet tall) picked up venom less Bane from the ground and tossed him as far as possible,Bane was unhurt.
@cadencev2: True but the material also matters. The rock conan could be lifting looks like the same material they used to make the houses seen in that second scan (top panel). I doubt conan is a 5 tonner like bane.
I myself consider it a 1 maybe 2 max ton feat.
Then he isn't as strong as bane.
@jashro44: I already told you that I know all of Bats speed feats, he's my favorite comic book character, his best speed feat I think is the one when he switched poisoned cups with the guy that wanted to kill him, I suppose you know what I'm talking about. The fact is that during Conan's time there were no bullets, so arrows are the fastest thing that he dodged, but he managed to evade bullets in WHAT IF stories.
Has Conan matched the feat with the cups or shown anything comparable? And even if we ignore batmans bullet timing feats for a second, has conan even moved faster then the human eye like batman has? Has he had fights so fast that people didn't even see the fights in question?
Yes, he has, I'll try to find scans, but he has sliced heads of 2 men at the same time before they could move, this happened on atleast 2 ocassions.

Thats fine. My point was Conan can tank a Bane Punch. can Bane tank a Razor Sharpen Heavy Sword Swing from Conan's strength?
He can just dodge it though.
lol, he won't dodge Conan's sword. Not when he's 6'8 and 350 lbs. Conan tanked mace hit straight to the head and continued with fight. He was shot with multiple arrows in his chest and he just pulled them out and continued to fight. If you've seen what Batman went through in Court of Owls labyrinth, that's nothing compared to what Conan has endured. He killed giant ape, who was 10 feet high, and the ape was tossing boulders bigger than Bane's at Conan.
@bigcimmerian: there is a difference between moving faster then human eyes can follow and cutting heads off people before they can move.
Is this fast enough for this battle? If Conan doesn't have sword in this battle then I'd agree that Bane would win.

dat ass
@jashro44: in Conan the Formidable he lifted a boulder bigger than his body
Yeah. Lemme know when conan can lift two tons.
You want a scandump of Conan lifting large rocks?
never gets old!
@risingbean: Your logic is flawed, since attacks of opportunity can not be made by a flat-footed opponent. However, it is irrelevent -- Conan will get initiative, Bane will block the first few attacks with his arms, badly wounding them. Bane will then get Conan in a grapple, squeezing him around the chest. Conan then bites down onto his already-wounded forearms, tearing out thick strips of flesh and causing Bane to let him go. Conan then tumbles forward, recovering his sword, and whirls around with one single, decisive, beheading strike. And that, boys and girls, is Bane vs. Conan.
I fear that description might be to perfect

well, when he was 50+ and surprised
"
With his back to the wall he faced the closing ring for a flashing instant, then leaped into the thick of them. He was no defensive fighter; even in the teeth of overwhelming odds he always carried the war to the enemy. Any other man would have already died there, and Conan himself did not hope to survive, but he did ferociously wish to inflict as much damage as he could before he fell. His barbaric soul was ablaze, and the chants of old heroes were singing in his ears.
As he sprang from the wall his ax dropped an outlaw with a severed shoulder, and the terrible back-hand return crushed the skull of another. Swords whined venomously about him, but death passed him by breathless margins. The Cimmerian moved in, a blur of blinding speed. He was like a tiger among baboons as he leaped, side-stepped and spun, offering an ever-moving target, while his ax wove a shining wheel of death about him."
in his prime
"
In an instant he was the center of a hurricane of stabbing spears and lashing clubs. But he moved in a blinding blur of steel. Spears bent on his armor or swished empty air, and his sword sang its death-song. The fighting-madness of his race was upon him, and with a red mist of unreasoning fury wavering before his blazing eyes, he cleft skulls, smashed breasts, severed limbs, ripped out entrails, and littered the deck like a shambles with a ghastly harvest of brains and blood.
also, he defeated a super-fast giant spider when he was 15 or so
@cadencev2: Which isn't a strength feat.
Not at all. You showed a Jumping feat, I showed a free fall feat. :) My point is the strength Bane used to jump is not one shotting the durability of that free fall.
A punch from Bane is going to stagger conan and leave him open for another, and many more punches. Not to mention Banes fighting style focuses around grapples and submission holds anyways.
And Conan beats giant apes on fairly a regular basis
Conan. He's a killer. A death machine. He's killed demons, countless armed and trained warriors, survived crucifixion (not even Jesus could do that), and killed the best fighters and swordsmen in the world. He's shrugged off blasphemous sorceries through sheer will alone, and bedded so many women it boggles the mind.
"But FEATS!!!!"
Oh shut up. For every Bane-did-this-"feat" I can name a Conan-"feat" that Bane hasn't done...it's a meaningless and subjective (look it up) comparison, at least in this specific case. Like, has Bane ever killed 2 Frost Giants after sustaining severe head trauma in an exhuasting battle AND after having run for miles through the Arctic Wasteland? No, he hasn't. He hasn't even killed one Frost Giant whle fully prepared and rested - pathetic. Neither has Batman, or Wolverine for that matter. Conan has.
Bane's a costumed, 'roided up criminal in tights. Conan's a barbaric killer and the pinnacle of a heritage of thousands of years of brutal war in the most violent and unforgiving environment possible.
this 1,000 x ^
I fully agree
@bigcimmerian: No. I find batman completely disappearing in front of human eyes to be more impressive.
I'm leaning towards Bane, but Conan's competence with a blade makes it difficult to commit.
Anybody have some feats featuring Bane vs. accomplished sword wielders? I think that would be more relevant than random strength and speed feats for this battle.
pre 52 bane was able to dodge sword strikes from ubu. All though Bane has limited showings in the new 52.
Here we go. He attacked faster than the human eye could follow.
