The Mask is a comic book series created by writer Mike Richardson, the artist Mark Badger, John Arcudi and Doug Mahnke, and published by Dark Horse Comics. The series follows a magical mask which imbues the wearer with reality- bending powers and physical imperviousness, as well as bypassing the wearer's psychological inhibitions. It was adapted into the 1. The Mask, starring Jim Carrey, which was followed by an animated television series voiced by Rob Paulsen and a stand- alone sequel made in 2.

Son of the Mask. Overview[edit]In all versions, the story initially revolves around a magical mask which gives any wearer limitless power and an altered appearance, characterized by a large set of teeth and a green head. The mask affects the personality of the wearer by removing all personal social inhibitions, causing the wearer to become insane. The book was inspired by a combination of earlier characters: The Joker and Steve Ditko's Creeper,[1] as well as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.

In the original comic stories, characters who wore the Mask would become dangerous and cruel antiheroes at best or villains at worst with ultra- violent tendencies, even if this was not the wearer's original intention. When adapted into a film, the Mask was toned down to make it only as dangerous as its wearer. In both the 1. 99. Stanley Ipkiss was depicted as a benevolent yet mischievous superhero. The same is true of the 2. Tim Avery, who is named after Tex Avery.

The title of the comic book originally referred to the mask itself and not the character it unleashed. In early stories, the character was referred to as Big Head; it was not until the films and television series that the character became known as The Mask.

The Mask (comic books)[edit]The base concept of The Mask was created by Mike Richardson in 1. It first saw life as a single sketch he drew in 1. APA- 5, an amateur press publication created by writer Mark Verheiden.[1] After starting Dark Horse Comics, Richardson pitched his concept to Marvel Comics comic book writer/artist Mark Badger, the outcome was the Masque strip that ran in the early issues of Dark Horse Presents.[1] Badger's strips became increasingly political, and Richardson ended the strip in order to bring the character back to his original concept. Artist Chris Warner was hired to revamp the character based on Richardson's original APA- 5 drawing and created the definitive look for the character, that was given a new launch in 1. Dark Horse's Mayhem anthology. Aspiring writer John Arcudi, and artist Doug Mahnke, were hired to create the new adventures, which became the first very popular use of the character, "a combination of Tex Avery and The Terminator".[1] The Mask stories from Mayhem #1- 4 were later collected as the 1.

The Mask #0 and in a trade paperback collection as well. Watch Take Care Online Ibtimes. Mayhem was canceled after four issues, but in 1. Arcudi and Mahnke continued with The Mask four issue limited series, which introduced one of the Mask's antagonists, a mute brutish hulk named Walter.

This run was among Dark Horse's best sellers; following it, the company continued a succession of miniseries around the Mask, with various antagonists and protagonists wearing the mask. These series concluded in 2. DC Comicscrossover. Joker/Mask, in which the magical Mask finds its way into the hands of Batman's arch- enemy The Joker.[2] The first major storylines and the Joker/Mask crossover have all been collected in trade- paperback and in a limited edition hardcover box set. In 2. 01. 4, after a 1. Dark Horse started publishing a new addition to the original Mask series, entitled "Itty Bitty Mask".

It takes an approach similar to "Tiny Titans" that is more silly and kid- friendly, unlike the graphic violence from the other Mask publications. Original ongoing series. Mayhem (#1–4, Monthly, May 1. September 1. 98. 9, re- printed in The Mask #0)The Mask (#1–4, Monthly, July 1.

At the store he purchases an old jade mask which begins to speak to him. When Stanley wears it, he is transformed into a wacky, super powered being with an abnormally large, bald, green- skinned head and a mouthful of large teeth.

After exploring his new abilities, Ipkiss goes on a rampage, taking revenge on those with whom he has a grudge, and earns the nickname Big Head. After taking the mask off, Stan begins to realize what has been happening. His acts as Big Head begin to take an emotional toll on him. He becomes verbally abusive toward Kathy. She kicks him out but keeps the mask since it was a gift from Stanley. Watch Advantage Dailymotion here. Later Stan breaks into her apartment to steal it back just as the police arrive in response to an earlier domestic violence call.

Deciding his only way out is as Big Head, Stan puts the mask back on and kills eleven cops during his escape. He returns home as Big Head and removes the mask only to be shot in the back and killed by Kathy, who has put two and two together and figured out the identity of Big Head. Kathy takes the mask to Lieutenant Kellaway for safe- keeping. Kellaway, who had been struggling with both the recent Big Head murders, and organized crime lords on the loose in his city, disregards Kathy's warnings, believing she is stressed and not thinking clearly, and tries on the mask. Becoming Big Head, Kellaway sets out to take down the crime lords who have plagued his police career. City dwellers, not knowing of the magical mask, assumes Big Head is still the same killer whose targets are now high- profile crime lords.

Despite Kellaway's good intentions, the mask causes his methods to become increasingly more violent. Big Head encounters Walter, a behemoth- sized mob muscle- man who never speaks, who has undertaken a vendetta against Big Head for killing his employers. Walter never shows pain and is the only one who can injure Big Head to any real degree.
