The second 'baddie' in The Dark Knight Rises is to be Bane, played by Tom Hardy - another great choice. Tom was excellent in Inception which undoubtedly sealed his place in the next Batman film. I've only seen a few of his films, but he was great in Rock'n'Rolla and was easily the best thing in Star Trek: Nemesis. But that isn't saying much ;)
Another very wonky pencil sketch in my A3 sketchbook, starting with HB and working up to 7B. I spent an hour trying several times to draw Jack Nicholson before giving up completely and doing this first go. Funny how some people are easier to do than others.

Spot on, Neil.
He's been on my list of people to caricature for a while, but I haven't gotten round to doing him yet. I was hoping I might be the first person to do a caricature of him, but you've beaten me to it. :)
I'm hoping the get the character of Bane right with this new movie, and not reduce him the mindless thug that he became in "Batman & Robin". He's supposed to be a kind of criminal version of Bruce Wayne - someone who has honed his physical strength and mental abilities.
Tom Hardy has bulked up before, for the movie "Bronson", and he's an intelligent actor, so I think he's great casting for the role.
