Powers and Abilities
In the original comics, the mask has superhuman physical attributes and intelligence, a healing factor, the ability to look like other people, and the ability to create objects out of the air.
In the other media, the mask's reality warping powers are more powerful, and it has more cartoon physics-style abilities, such as:
- Superpowers mimetism
- shapeshifting: powers include elasticity, self transmutation, duplication, biological manipulation and size-shifting
- In the animated series, the mask is portrayed as invincible. Being almost completely impervious to attacks from his foes. The only exception to this is when he gets sick with a cold.
