The Mask (comics): Difference between revisions

* [[Puppeteer Parasite]]: The mask itself is a semi-living entity that can speak. Anyone who wears it is initially in control, or so it seems, as they seem to be fully aware of what they're doing with their new powers. However, they're quickly driven to murder and violence and after only a short time find their own minds being subdued as the mask takes control.

* [[Secret Identity]]: Subverted as the mask changed hands quite often, though as far as most of the police and media knew, it was the same killer each time.

* [[Squashed Flat]]: After Stanley first puts on the mask, he's run over by a car and flattened, complete with hideous amounts of blood. But he's just fine.

* [[Stable Time Loop]]: ''Lobo VS Mask''. {{spoiler|Lobo is hired to hunt down the "Ultimate Bastich", a being that destroyed numerous planets and killed billions. He's led to Earth, the last known location and finds Big Head, who, after a lengthy fight, admits it was his last wearer. After a lengthier galactic hunt, Lobo takes the mask himself, ends up going through a wormhole, and after being offended by a child's crayon drawing, obliterates numerous worlds. He'd been hired to hunt himself.}} The loop was broken at the end of the issue, however.
