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.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“We may not pay Satan reverence, for that would be indiscreet, but we can at least respect his talents. A person who has for untold centuries maintained the imposing position of spiritual head of four-fifths of the human race, and political head of the whole of it, must be granted the possession of executive abilities of the loftiest order.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
