Microface stories 1 & 2, republished from the public domain by Mountain Town Comics and printed by Ka-Blam Comics. Microface is a lesser-known but intriguing superhero with a unique and bizarre power set. Here's a breakdown of the character: Tom Wood was a factory worker and a failed inventor. When his brother, Jim, was killed by Big Boston’s gangsters, Tom promised to avenge Jim’s death so invented a “Micro-Mask” – a full-face mask that contained a built-in microphone (which allowed hm to amplify and throw his voice), a hearing amplifier, and “photoelectric lenses” that gave him x-ray vision. He could also attach telephone wires to his mask to make phone calls. Tom offered the invention to the U.S. government, only to be turned down. Regardless, he used it to become “Micro-Face!” Originally published in 1943.
