The opening scene of Absolute Batman #9 reveals a major difference between the Absolute Universe Bane and the original Earth-Prime villain.

Bane, who turns 27 later this month, is one of the league's top 3-point shooters and is expected to help the Magic improve in that area after being the worst team from distance last season.

A 6-5 shooting guard, Bane shot 39.2% on 6.1 attempts from 3-point range per game last season for Memphis when he averaged 19.2 points with 6.1 rebounds and 5.3 assists during 32 minutes in 69 games.

Bane averaged 19.2 points, 6.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.2 steals in 69 regular season games. He will be a key addition to a Magic team that had the third-lowest points per game in the league.

Bane, 26, averaged 19.2 points, 6.1 rebounds, and 5.3 assists in 69 games this year. Over five seasons with Memphis, he’s posted career averages of 17.8 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists.
