Quote: The Mask originated as a comic book series by publisher Dark Horse Comics. It was later adapted into the 1994 film The Mask, starring Jim Carrey, a spin-off television cartoon series and a 2005 film sequel Son of the Mask. In all versions the story initially revolves around a magical mask which gives anyone who places it on their face nearly limitless power and an altered appearance, which is most characterized by a large set of teeth and green head. Furthermore, the mask affects the personality of the wearer by removing all personal social inhibitions. Taken another way, the wearer takes off his metaphorical masks - his social inhibitions - by putting on an actual mask. Not only is the wearer's Id totally in control, but the power imbued by the Mask gives him or her the ability to realize those impulses. Therefore, the capabilities of the Mask are entirely dependent upon its wearer.

The title of the comic book originally referred to the magical mask itself and not the green-headed superhero-like character it unleashed, who was referred to as Big Head in the early stories. It was not until the films and television series that the green headed superhero character himself became known as The Mask.

Likewise, in the original comic stories characters who wore the Mask would become dangerous anti-heroes with ultraviolent tendencies, even if this was not the original intention of those using its power. When adapted into a film the violence was toned down to make The Mask only as dangerous as the wearer. Once the film was spun off into an animated television show the character was depicted more as a mischievous superhero.

The Mask was created by Mike Richardson for APA - 5, an amateur press publication created by writer Mark Verheiden. After starting Dark Horse Comics, Richardson pitched his concept to Marvel comic book writer/artist Mark Badger, which resulted in The Masque strip that ran in the early issues of Dark Horse Presents. Badger's strips became increasingly political, and Richardson ended the strip to in order to bring the character back in line with his original concept. Artist Chris Warner was hired to revamp the character based on Richardson's original APA - 5 drawings. and created the definitive look for the character. The character was given a new launch in 1989 in the pages of Mayhem #1. Aspiring writer John Arcudi and artist Doug Mahnke were hired to create the new adventures.

In 1991 John Arcudi and Doug Mahnke's created The Mask four issue mini-series (as well as a bonus issue #0) which became the first very popular use of the character. Following this first series Dark Horse Comics continued a succession of miniseries around this popular version of the character. These series concluded in 2000 with the DC Comics company crossover Joker/Mask, in which the magical Mask finds its way into the hands of Batman's arch-enemy The Joker.
