There’s nothing wrong with an origin story, especially when it is about a character few comic book readers have little knowledge. For masquerade, readers not only get an origin origin, but also a Dynamite Entertainment’s take on her modern origin.

Writer Jim Krueger is back on board and joined series by up and coming artist extraordinaire Edgar (DEATH-DEFYING ‘DEVIL) Salazar! Painter and artist Doug Klauba rounds out the Chapter two creative team with a special painted origin sequence in each and every issue of the series – first up, The Black Terror!
“We’ve been working hard to continue the action, intrigue and excitement we started in chapter One, as Joe in my office stated, and to quote George Lucas “Faster, More Intense, more Power in every scene”!” said Dynamite President and Publisher Nick Barrucci in a prepared statement. “Volume one dealt with quite a bit of introduction of the characters, with character build up. Now, Alex, Jim and Dynamite Editorial have ratcheted this new series up past full volume as we continue to explore the nature of power, and loss!”

Project Superpowers Spins Off Female Heroine
There’s something about golden age heroes and the time period in which their stories are set. I think it has something to do with the atomic bomb. Prior to the advent of the nuclear age, the world was still full of mystery, unexplored worlds, and magic. Times were simpler, with readers happy with their mystery men with tales set in far away worlds. Following the end of World War II those mystery men began to disappear into annals of history – fortunately the threat of the Nazi menace and the rising red menace gave heroes like Masquerade a reason to don the domino mask and fight crime.
Dynamite Entertainment has announced the third spin-off series from its popular Project Superpowers series, will be Masquerade. The four-issue mini-series will be written by Phil Hester of The Darkness fame, with art by Carlos Paul and Deborah Carita.
“Project Superpowers is such an epic, larger-than-life event that I’m thrilled to be allowed a small role in the event,” stated writer Phil Hester. “I believe Masquerade will give fans of the larger series a look at what makes these characters work on a human level. Masquerade is both a secret origin and a personal memoir of earth shaking events spanning from the golden age to the world of tomorrow.”
