* Boy Blue from ''[[Fables]]'' when he's infiltrating the Homelands, in a clear ''[[The Princess Bride (film)|The Princess Bride]]'' homage down to the near-identical bandana-mask.

* The [[Anti-Hero]] in ''[[V for Vendetta]]'' wears a Guy Fawkes mask. In the movie, the mask is such a powerful symbol, it overshadows the hero himself up to a point where it's hard to tell who's wearing whom. |

* The graphic novel ''[[Fall of Cthulhu]]'' features a being called the Masked Mute, who is somehow related to Nyarlathotep (often referred as the god with a thousand masks) and takes the form of a little girl wearing a mask. [[Humanoid Abomination|You don't want to know what's behind that mask...]] |

* Rorschach from ''[[Watchmen]]'' only feels like himself when he's wearing his mask, even referring to it as his face. This sort of overlaps with [[Becoming the Mask]], though. |
