It's a huge understatement to say that
Tom Hardy has a hardcore fanbase. The attractive and talented star has inspired lust, longing, and admiration in audiences across the world. Now his good looks, charm, and penchant for creating fascinating characters has inspired a permanent tribute in one fan.
The Dark Knight Rises doesn't hit theaters until July 20, 2012, but the ink has barely dried on the first Bane tattoo according to
io9. Hardy's backbreaking character – which we've been able to peek in the trailer and all the teaser photos that have spread across the Internet – is now a portrait on one man's arm. Hopefully Christopher Nolan's
Batman track record continues to be aces. Maybe this person just really loves Bane but hates the comic book character's getup – preferring Nolan's pseudo-military look. Check it out and speculate for yourself. P.S. omgz Bane!!!
