superhero mask

Crime-fighter's face covering

A superhero mask is a face covering worn by comic book heroes and their real-world imitators, typically concealing the area around the eyes while leaving the mouth exposed.

The mask serves the fictional purpose of hiding the hero's secret identity: Batman's cowl, Spider-Man's full-face mask.

Children wear superhero masks for Halloween or costume play.
