Line 45:
* Hush, from the ''[[Batman]]'' comic, also covers his face in bandages.
* The Negative Man and Negative Woman in the [[DC Universe]]. Both have to wear those special bandages to contain the intense radiation their bodies emit that is part of their energy being powers.
* Harvey Dent, aka Two-Face from ''Batman'', has this happen in his first appearance after he is scarred by acid-- completeacid—complete with dramatic unwrapping to reveal the scar tissue. This happens subsequently ''every time'' he goes in for facial reconstruction surgery (like in ''[[The Dark Knight Returns]]'').
* [[Captain America (comics)|The Red Skull]] had a Bandaged Man around him for a while, who was told to be [[Doctor Doom]], then deciding that having Doom ''be'' in [[World War Two]] was silly so it was [[Retcon|Retconned]]ned into him timetravelling. He also didn't kill [[Hitler's Time Travel Exemption Act|Adolf Hitler]] because his original death at the hands of the original Human Torch was "fitting" but that's neither here or there.

Line 84:
* An episode of ''[[Pushing Daisies]]'' has this, complete with a drawn-on face.
* In an episode of ''[[The Incredible Hulk]]'' David Banner had amnesia and bandages covering his face due to severe burns - which was quite convenienet since [[Intrepid Reporter]] Jack McGee was paling around with him the entire episode. This was the ep where McGee discovered that the Hulk was a normal person who ''turned into'' the Hulk.
* In ''[[The Twilight Zone]]'' episode "The Eye of the Beholder," a woman has her face wrapped in bandages as she undergoes treatment for the horrible ugliness that prevents her from living in the [[Dystopia|dystopiandystopia]]n society. When the bandages come off, {{spoiler|she's gorgeous... except that a [[Reveal Shot]] reveals that all the doctors have pig faces--the treatment has failed and she's still "ugly".}}
* ''[[Get Smart]]'': Max impersonates a safecracker by having his head swathed in bandages so the bad guys can't tell he isn't that guy he's pretending to be.
* In an episode of Gary Moore's ''[[To Tell the Truth]]'', Prankster Alan Abel appeared with his head wrapped in bandages, as it turned out not so much that he wouldn't be recognized, but so the panel wouldn't identify his two impostors -- {{spoiler|Larry Blyden}} and {{spoiler|Tom Poston}}
