Man in the Iron Mask Spy Smasher.png

No, not the famous character from the 1850 Dumas novel. This one is a Nazi saboteur sent to wreak havoc in America and take down hero Spy Smasher, in Fawcett comic book Spy Smasher #4 (April 22, 1942).

An unnamed German musician, he didn't salute Hitler, so Hitler had an iron mask welded over his head, and told him the only way he'll take it off is if he brings Hitler the head of Spy-Smasher.

Masky is hiding in and haunting Castle Fenmore, which is being renovated into Fort Corby. He's playing the enormous pipe organ in the night, and causing fatal industrial accidents during the day. Spy Smasher (really wealthy Alan Armstrong) and Masky fight several times, and eventually Spy Smasher knocks him into the moat where the weight of his mask pulls him down and he drowns.
