Even though this has already been discussed, I'll give my thoughts anyway.

I don't think the writing team is so stupid that they would make it so transparently obvious that the two were the same person. The bane guy simply must have the same haircut as the other guy. It would also be hard for me to imagine that a 17 or 18 year old man was leading a portion of a terrorist group. How would he be able to sneak outta beacon, get air transport, discreetly change his appearance, and do White Fangy things all before dawn? And how would he be able to do all that without any of his teammates knowing unless they were also in on it, which I find highly unlikely. If he has teleportation powers, then I'll take all that back.

I don't even believe that the bane guy is the actual white fang leader. I got the impression that they were an international organization. Seeing someone of that stature in a warehouse while there are a hundred other operations taking place is truly ludicrous. That is unless he and Roman are formally acquainted. Also, it's pretty hard to pull off an evil smile when you're wearing a full-face mask like a pitiful coward. I don't think the leader is a coward as it takes balls to overthrow the old leaders and then turn your peace committee into a military force.

I think the bane guy is simply "up there" in the chain of command. Much like how I think Adam is also "way up there" due to his uniform.
