Mask

The Mask (1992–present) is a short, sharp comic series from Condor that launched the darkly comedic, reality-bending antics of the titular artifact. Though only two issues long, this original run established the core premise of a seemingly harmless mask that transforms its wearer into a chaotic, cartoonish force of violence and mischief. The series is most closely associated with its creator, who brought a unique blend of slapstick humor and noir-infused horror to the story. It matters as the foundational text for the beloved 1994 film adaptation, proving that a simple, high-concept horror-comedy can leave a lasting pop culture footprint.
