I've enjoyed the various incarnations of The Mask that I've seen over the years, including the original feature and some parts of the animated series. The character has largely been shelved since his last main series back in 2000, and that really is a surprise since it feels like this is a property you could bring out briefly every year with a special or something else. Baltazar and Franco's take is spot on though in just having a blast with the concept since we get new characters all around a family friendly approach that still plays to the core idea of the concept and the kind of style that this pairing embodies in so many of their works. It's a great come back for a character that has been away for far too long. Read Full Review
