The Mask #4
In "The Mask Strikes Back Part 4," the chaos escalates as Hugo’s brief experiment with the Mask proves too overwhelming, forcing him to hand it over. With the responsibility falling to Archie—the group’s self-proclaimed most level-headed member—he’s quickly tempted to don the mask himself, setting off a new wave of unpredictable antics. Written by John Arcudi and brought to life by Doug Mahnke’s dynamic art, with Keith Williams handling the inks and Gregory Wright’s vivid colors, this 1995 Dark Horse issue captures the series’ signature blend of absurdity and energy. The cover by Doug Mahnke and Keith Williams perfectly encapsulates the madness in motion.
