According to Wikipedia: The Face first appeared in the Columbia Comics omnibus title Big Shot Comics #1 (May 1940) and continued until issue #62 (January 1946). The Face is radio announcer Tony Trent, who decides to fight crime after having witnessed a murder committed by gangsters disguised as cops. Having no innate superpowers, he instead uses a frightful mask to scare criminals, not unlike Batman. With issue #63, he no longer wears the mask and fights crime as himself until Big Shot #104, the last issue of the series.

Assuming that The Face appeared in every issue, that means there were at least 62 stories about the character. I find that mystifying. And therefore fascinating. I did an illustration a while back that featured The Face. I took some liberties with the character’s design and made his mask uglier than its original design. I took liberties again with this new version.
