Summary New fan art for the iconic 90s film The Mask has given the story a horrific R-rated tone much closer to the comics. Infamously, the film's comic roots were far darker than what many fans of the Jim Carey film classic would expect, and a new piece of fan art shows fans just how epic a more comic-accurate version of The Mask would be.
However, rather than dip into the comedic tones of the movie, they look to the comics for inspiration as The Mask – best known as Big Head by comic fans – sits in a dark alley, wielding a hammer with a sinister grin on his face. Behind him is a message written in blood that states "Somebody Stop Me."

The only thing fans can see are his iconic yellow suit Jim Carrey wore in the 90s film, and a green smile peeking through the darkness.
