We have a bunch of security guards who actually confront and battle the art thief! 🙂
And we have some heroes incl. 2 women (one masks herself) who also fight against the art thief! 🙂
…..but…..
See for yourself:
Fully masked art thief…
…vs this team!
And she is now masked as well 🙂

ARRGGGGGHHHHH!
They start the episode with that fully masked art thief and of course, I think about the possibilities of a great unmasking or an attempt to unmask her.
I was 100% sure that the thief was a woman from the first seconds of the scene, even her baggy clothes and 3-part mask are disguising her perfectly.
But her eyes gave it away instantly.
The fight with the guards was nice but also weird.
Why is the guard shooting at an unarmed thief (Is Gotham in Texas? :lol:)
Why is the thief risking damaging the picture as she throws it around in the fight?
Her strategy wo wait for the guards is weird at first but gets explained later on.
She wants to know them all out to be able to escape without being pursued (if I understood that right).
A shame none of the guards manage to get into close combat with her. One reach for her mask would have already been awesome!
The confrontation with the Gotham Knights is a total disaster in terms of having an interesting unmasking.
It’s nice to see Harper masking herself! Why doesn’t Stephanie has some sort of mask? Damn.
I highly doubt the bullet would get deflected like that as it hits the car. I mean the car isn’t armored, the bullet would just blast through the outer frame and would get stuck there… in my opinion.
Now the art thief is wounded… the heroes arrive and she immediately gives up and unmasks herself.
DAMN!
And the reveal isn’t good as well as the masked super thief isn’t the stunner as I hoped.
Such promise… and then that! All that left me rather frustrated…
Ok, I do like the first scene, so it was nice… but another missed chance.
It’s good that the heroes here in the show use masks for the first time! I hope that they will do that regularly from now on, especially the women 😉
And hopefully, they will have real costumes and masks before the show is over.
That is the main reason I watch the show after all.
Thanks a lot to the nice guy who recommended this one!
In this short scene, we have a villain named Mr. Terror… so why I wanna show the scene here on this blog?
Well, to no surprise… Mr. Terror is actually a villainESS!

Like always the henchmen have…

Who is behind the mask?

Yeah, just a short scene… but I like the reveal as it is quite a surprise to find a “slightly” crazy mother!
She was perfectly disguised with a baggy outfit, a full face mask, and a voice modifier. Not exactly a sexy disguise… but a very effective one for sure.
The scene is from a kid’s TV show with a lot of comedy elements so it’s hard to take it really “seriously”.
I uploaded it to Youtube, but it was blocked in the US and Canada right away, even though the video is just over a minute.
But I guess Amish Youtube might have put an age restriction on it anyhow so it’s better on Drive anyhow.

Watch the video before you continue!
Sadly the scene is very short and we see her only masked for a second or two. But it’s a nice unmasking and reveal as the background story of this is really interesting!
Quite sick and twisted …but very interesting 😆
Massive Spoilers ahead!
So we have Zoe and Jenna who have been best friends since …forever. Zoe lost her husband a year back and is feeling miserable all the time.
Jenna wants her to date so she would get happy again. Zoe and that “Klaus” guy are dating with kinky BDSM games where she never sees “his” face.
Then she gets ra_ed by “him” and the cops get involved (this all isn’t shown on the show, only told).
This Klaus wants to see her again (quite weird, why would Zoe want that?) and so they set up this meeting… which gets turned into a trap to catch Klaus.
Turns out this Klaus is really Jenna who had some sexual encounters with Zoe in their colleague days.
Jenna wanted Zoe to get happy again and even took this so far as she inserted her some sperm from a sperm donor to impregnate Zoe (to make her happy again – quite a deranged idea…)
But Zoe didn’t want that…. so, in the end, this case goes to trial.
Oh boy, quite a storyline… but with a nice unmasking!
I like that Zoe immediately goes for the mask! This a habit many villains should adopt when they are fighting against masked heroines 😉
I’m not particularly thrilled about most of the episodes from the latest Flash seasons… but this one …. this one is different 🙂
The Batwoman TV show had an unsatisfying ending as it ended as a normal season would end. And a few weeks later it was announced that there wouldn’t be another season at all.
But luckily, Batwoman now returned… even if it was only for a scene in the Flash show.
And she isn’t the only masked woman in this scene 🙂
Preview:
Red Death VS
Flash! ….and he could really use some help!
And help he gets…from… Batwoman!

Watch the video before you continue!
It felt really good for me to get this final appearance from Batwoman/Ryan one year after the Batwoman show ended pretty abruptly.
Also cool that a Ryan Wilder from another dimension is Red Death here, the masked villainess.
She also appeared in the two previous episodes but sadly she unmasks herself very quickly so there is no suspense about who she really is.
Somehow funny how she carried her self-unmasking fetish over to a new masked character 😆 …. 🙁
Sadly her mask is a high-tech thingy and these self-unmaskings are really lame.
Would have been so great if that would have been a normal rubber cowl and they would find out who she is by unmasking her.
But… as often… that seems to be a big taboo.
Flash gets actually captured and tied up by the villains in a previous episode and one actually wants to unmask him.
But then another mentions that the Flash cowl would electrocute everyone who would try that… and then the topic is off the table completely 🙁
Of course, I hoped here that Red Death would rip apart Batwoman’s rubber cowl in order to show her dominance… but no luck 😆
At least Red Death gets unmasked here, even if it is so quick that is hard to see… and they cheated with the unmasking of course….
I am very glad though about this fight as it’s quite rare to have a fight with two masked women!
Later this month I will re-watch the last season of Batwoman as one year has passed since the last episode was aired.
Damn… I really miss having a TV show with a masked woman as the lead character….
I really like this video, and I also hate it! Why? More on that later on…
I stumbled upon this scene as I watch this show for a while and finally started watching it again.
We have two masked women in a heist 🙂

Masked woman number 1…
….and number 2
Time for some action!

Here is the video:

Ok, where to start?
I watched the episode and the blonde master thief was introduced. The police were never able to prove any of her thefts and she was planning something.
Of course, my fantasy imagined a great heist scene where she would battle some cops who tried to stop and unmask her.
I was really thrilled by the possibilities 🙂
Then she goes on a heist, and puts up a great mask …. and you might imagine how I reacted to the scene that followed 😉
I cursed at my TV as she was running away and unmasked herself for NO reason! DAMN IT! WHY????????
I mean the police already predicted she would show up there and that’s why all the cops were on the scene undercover.
But she is still masked and could escape. WHY does she unmask herself as she is running away?
That makes no sense at all. I mean as long she is masked she is still “safe” as the cops have no proof that she did it.
It would have been so great if Nolan (the guy in the security dude uniform) would wrestle her down and unmask after a fight… but NO, of course not!
It’s a real trope by now that masked women always unmask themselves for no reason.
That drives me crazy! Another wasted opportunity 🙁
I mean she is already wearing a nice catsuit (sort of) and the mask in combination with the cap is a great disguise… but they screw it up.
Also, it is quite odd that she is on a heist and is wearing these ankle boots with heels but… ok, not as crazy/unrealistic as a Catwoman with stiletto heels (TDKR)….even she was insanely sexy.
The second masked woman is just a little bonus as she is just a nameless henchwoman.
In my imagination, she would have also prevented the unmasking at a nightly heist (without a crew) and would then re-appear in later episodes 😉
Well, I don’t write these scripts…. hopefully, there will be more masked women in the show.
Well, quite a good unmasking 🙂 , and a nice surprise for Ivy!
Ok, as mostly I do have some issues, let’s start with those:
It’s a little shame that she doesn’t fit back or at least says something before she gets unmasked.
It would have been great if the unmasking would have been shown with more panels.
Also, it always annoys me that the mask seemingly goes off that easy, I mean the cowl shouldn’t go off like that with a quick yank.
The material below the chin should prevent that. Here it looks like that material just ripped very easily as there is such a gap in it.
But ok, enough nitpicking… it’s so rare that you see Batgirl getting unmasked by a villain! And here it is not just any villain, it’s Poison Ivy!
Glad that Poison Ivy immediately recognizes Daphne and is so shocked about the reveal. She is shocked much more than Daphne… which tells a little bit that Daphne is just pretending to be THE Batgirl.
Normally Batgirl should be completely devastated if she gets unmasked like that… after all this could be the end of her crime-fighting career.
I am pretty low on material to post…. but I haven’t posted about these scenes from a rather old animated movie!
In this one, a mysterious villain in full disguise keeps finishing off bad guys…. and actually, it’s more like a villainESS 😉
Soon Batman and the Joker get involved….
Preview:
There she is…
Batman wants to stop her!
Time to face the Joker!

Here is the video:

Watch the video before you continue!
Yeah, I know… not the greatest reveal, especially since the Joker already knows who she is.
But when you watch the whole movie without already knowing who is under the mask… it’s a nice reveal since she perfectly hides who she is.
And her costume and the voice changer also cloak the fact that she is a woman. Plus the costume is rather unusual….
I have seen the cover of this movie several times but I never knew that it was about a female villain.
I do like her backstory, that she takes revenge and finishes off these bad guys. Basically, she isn’t really a villainess, more like a murderous vigilante.
Really a shame that the police showed up as Batman (seemingly) got the upper hand and might have unmasked her…. or at least tried that.
In the last weeks, I posted about the new Irma Vep TV show and the movie from 1996.
But Irma Vep actually first appeared in a movie serial in ….1915! Yes……1915!
Yes, that means black and white + no sound…just some added music.
I’m certainly a total beginner when it comes to movies THAT old but I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this movie serial may include the first unmasking of a woman in a movie!
After all, this was just about 20 years after the first movie was made and they didn’t make that many movies back then in the early days of cinema.
I didn’t upload this on Youtube as the Youtube police might have some issues with it. After all her costume is very stretchy and you can see through it sometimes.
It’s not hard to see that she isn’t wearing a bra underneath it so her nipples show in some shots. That’s why I slightly censored the pictures of her as well. I don’t know exactly how far I can go on this blog.
But don’t worry, the video isn’t censored 😉
Back then there was a big discussion about her costume as the movie serial was released, remember it was 1915 and that costume did move a lot of eyebrows (and other parts) back then.
Even today this costume would be troublesome (for some), especially in color and HD 😉
I think the mask combo is interesting with a cowl that is attached to the suit and an additional fabric that covers the face.
The mask of the new TV show is similar but there only the lower part of her face is covered by an additional piece of fabric.
With this mask, Irma is rather easy to unmask, as one quick pull is enough to expose her face (except the cowl part).
I like how he is immediately going for her mask to see the face of the masked thief he just caught. I don’t get why she didn’t resist him as he reaches for her mask, that’s a little minus point for me.
However, it is such a great fantasy to catch such a masked thief…. I wouldn’t mind being in his skin 😉
I guess I need a mansion and some valuables to attract thieves like her 😆
I added the scene with her replacement to the video as it is never wrong to have another masked woman in it, especially as the “masking” is in the video. (is that even a word?)
All in all a very interesting scene, even though it is in black and white and there is no sound (except music).
Time for another scene from the same movie which I posted about last week!
In this scene, the masked cat burglar in latex gets unmasked 🙂

She sneaks around and…
…gets caught!
He has special plans…

And here is the video:

In my opinion, the scene is very interesting but there are a lot of negative aspects for me.
It is shot in black and white (which is unsexy) and the scene has no audio as it is only a presentation for the movie makers who wanna check out what they have filmed earlier in the day.
As you can see in the ending the director isn’t happy about it at all and is arguing with the camera guy.
Sadly it’s not shown as they are actually filming it. 🙁
And I still don’t get why Irma Vep isn’t resisting as he unmasks her. (as in the original from 1916)
In the new TV show, the scene is done differently, and that is my favorite version:
In this one, the acting is quite…. off… a little bit.
On the plus side, it has a sexy cat burglar in latex(!) with a full face mask! Certainly, a fantastic outfit to create some great scenes with it…. which they are barely doing.
Imagine a cat burglar in that outfit and mask on a heist, getting caught by security guards… and then battling against them as they try to pin her down and unmask her 😉
Episode 1 of season 3 was a classic season opener for me. Much story to tell, little action.
And that means that Stargirl and co only had VERY limited screen time in this one. Two relatively short scenes with little action.
Certainly an interesting episode, but regarding material for this blog…. there was very little there.
On the good side, there were up to 4(!) masked women in these two short scenes! 🙂

Minor Spoilers ahead…
Storywise, I am not sure about the idea that all the JSA and Injustice League are now working together.
Not surprisingly characters like hourglass and Wildcat are not happy about working together with former villains and villainesses.
It’s a rather safe bet that it won’t work for too long 😉
Sadly, they all know each other’s …not so secret…secret identities so it would be SO easy for the bad guys to get the upper hand, but I think they won’t exploit that at all :-(.
Interestingly there were newspaper reports in this one about strange sightings that were caused by Stargirl.
Perhaps the public will FINALLY be aware that there are masked heroes and villains running around their city.
Then the masks would actually be really useful again as …so far… the heroes and villains only battled each other… while the normal people were not aware that these folks even exist.
And that would open some interesting possibilities….
Looking forward to the new episodes and ….hopefully…. there will be much more action with the many masked ladies of this show!
At first, I wanted to upload that scene on Youtube, but I suspect that the scene may be ….problematic…and I got into trouble for videos with “less”.
I simply don’t want to endanger my Maskripper Youtube channel.
Ok, that scene is the most interesting in an episode PACKED with interesting scenes.
There are more scenes of her in costume and mask and the film crew is discussing if it is ok to even film that scene and if you would be a pervert if you find it sexy (him touching her …like that…while she is unconscious). All that is highly interesting, especially as the director is strongly defending that scene and he admitted (to his female psycho-doc!) in an earlier episode that he is really turned on by women in catsuits and the whole Irma Vep role, which is played by that actress he really “likes”…… 🙂
Again….WATCH the whole episode…..at least!!!!!!
Now on to the scene itself:
I think she looks fantastic in that catsuit and mask!
The way they talk with each other….pure gold.
It’s a little odd that she gets surprised by his chloroform attack, even her hood and mask …maybe… preventing her from hearing or smelling the upcoming danger.
Also… as you should know by now…. I highly prefer unmaskings with a conscious heroine/villainess.
But nonetheless, the whole scene is incredibly sexy…. in certain ways.
Of course, it is not ok at all that the bad guy is doing that… but it is fiction, it’s not real.
I mean what a fantasy it is to see a sexy woman in such a catsuit and mask.
And the director inside this TV show really enjoys filming that scene big time 😉
Well, I can’t blame him…
–
3 more episodes to go in this season, hopefully, it gets another season….if the ending of the season allows it.
However, it is already clear to me that this TV show will end up in my Hall of Fame.
