Fan War: The Mask vs. Rick Taylor (Splatterhouse)

Hi everyone I'm Jack Red, there is a reason I chose to left this episode off my previous Fan War blog. I did help researching The Mask back when he was suppose to face Deadpool. However we both couldn't figure out the best way of pulling this fight off without leaving any unanswered questions. Both of them were pretty ridiculous in their own right.


He decided to change his opponent to Rick Taylor. Other people helped him in researching Rick for this fight. To clarify I only count on researching The Mask. I was a fan of the classic Jim Carrey movie. I also remember seeing bits of the cartoon show too. Now I knew of Rick for a long time through hard to follow Genesis code books.

The Mask can only be killed by the user willingly taking off the mask thus losing their powers or through beheading. Believe it or not, his powers protects most of his body from anything. However his neck is the only vulnerable area for a killing slash. Rick has a crazy journey fighting demons, possessed things and evil spirits.

Let's be honest he gave Rick the best possible set up. The Mask is simply way too much for even him to handle. Another way of saying it is every person that wore the mask does become insane. At the same time it brings out how they are in the inside. Which does affect how they can use their powers. Stanley was a fan of classic cartoons so it would make sense his variation of the mask would be a living cartoon character.

This mask was created by Loki a Norse mythology god. In Son of the Mask, another user held his own against it's creator being equal. Considering what he can do means Rick had no real way surviving this. The Mask can break the fourth wall to pulling out those overkill firearms. Basically he can alter parts of reality to a degree.

Rick was a normal human dying to make a deal with a demonic mask creature. There is no question of his toughness but there's a thin line to that. The Mask can tank almost everything you can possibly think of with ease. Let's be direct here Rick did an amazing job holding his own. But The Mask is an unusual kind of super hero that several people shared the atlas.

The Mask could've won even easier if we pulled feats from other users. Rick was simply doomed or should I say damned from the start. The Mask can be as tough, as strong or as fast as he wants to be. The Mask can have any power he can think of. In a weird way he is similar to Marvel's Apocalypse another god like being.
