Meet Vengeance, Bane's daughter, who debuted in The Joker #2

A deadly new villain debuted in April 13's The Joker #2 by James Tynion IV and Guillem March - one who is taking after her daddy.

A new villain named Vengeance debuted last week, the daughter of Bane. The latest in a long line of new characters Tynion has introduced to the Bat-family over the past year, Vengeance was even played up with a secret variant cover slipped into comic book stores' shipments of Joker #2 issues - with one copy of this variant for every 50 copies they ordered of the issue.

As a whole, The Joker #2 came jam-packed with potentially significant reveals that could shake up Batman's world. Spoilers ahead for this (and more) on the issue.

In Tom King's Batman run, Bane played the eponymous big bad of the 'City of Bane' arc, which included the death of Alfred Pennyworth by his hands. The storyline is still reverberating in Tynion's Batman run today, although the Joker has taken back the reins as Batman's arch-nemesis, cementing his role in Infinite Frontier #0 with the 'Jokerization' and death of Bane. pg slot
