HISTORY

The villain known as the Red Mask was an ordinary man until one day in 1945 when he touched a meteor. He then had a 'death touch' which would instantly kill anyone he came into physical contact with. With such a power, he did the only thing he thought he could, and became a villain. He commited crimes in the 1940s, together with his sometimes-partner, the Veil (I). They mostly kept out of the spotlight, but once fought Captain Triumph.

In his old age the Red Mask got sick and frail. Late in his life, he committed suicide after an encounter with Animal Man.
