Illusion is the ultimate weapon...

Way back in 1996, the first edition of this page was the first of MANY MASK websites that have popped up over the years.

Up above, you can see a list of the various features you can find here. Character bios of MASK and VENOM, a humorous "Behind the Music" profile, a feature on MASK urban legends, episode guides, and more. Not too much has been updated but hopefully the new "can of paint" on the site is appreciated.

Before anyone asks, I do NOT have any MASK vehicles or cartoons available to trade. But if you check out EBay (www.ebay.com), you can find some. If you're in the United Kingdom the first five episodes are available on DVD. Click here to order a copy!

We've heard that in some countries they may be putting out more complete sets, although ordering information is unavailable and we can't tell you if the sets are even in English. E-mail me if you know more about that.

My personal MASK collection started in 1985. I remember my best friend Adam had a vehicle called "Thunderhawk" that was a car that turned to an airplane. I thought it was pretty cool. Several months later, for my 8th birthday, Adam gave me my very first MASK vehicle -- Gator! Rhino and Switchblade followed that Christmas, and I managed to collect everything that followed (with the exceptions of the "urban legend" Shark, the Laser Command r/c vehicle, and some of the Split Seconds vehicles).

If there are any others of you who remember MASK and would like to talk about it, send me an e-mail and I'll get back to you soon.

And we can only dream that someday a cartoon network of sorts will pick up "MASK" and add it to their daily schedules, or that, like recent releases of G.I. Joe and Thundercats to DVD, it will hit the DVD format here in the United States.
