The Mask is a comic book series created by Doug Mahnke and John Arcudi and published by Dark Horse Comics. Its artists include Mark Badger, Chris Warner and Keith Williams. It tells the story of a supernatural mask that grants its wearers superpowers at the cost of their sanity, and the inevitable chaos it causes. The original trilogy of The Mask, The Mask Returns, and The Mask Strikes Back was published as a limited series from 1991 to 1995, and has since expanded into various spin-offs and other media. The series is known for its dark tone and graphic violence.
In all versions, the story initially revolves around a magical mask which bestows on its wearer reality-bending powers and an altered appearance, characterized by a large set of teeth and a green head. The mask affects the personality of the wearer by removing all social and moral inhibitions, causing the wearer to become insane. The character was inspired by a combination of the Joker and Steve Ditko's version of the Creeper, as well as Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. In the original comics, characters who wore the Mask would become cruel antiheroes at best or murderous, vengeful villains at worst with ultra-violent tendencies, even if this was not the wearer's original intention. In the 1994 film and the animated series, the Mask was toned down to make it only as dangerous as its wearer, and the main character Stanley Ipkiss was depicted as a mischievous yet benevolent superhero. The same is true of the 2005 sequel's main character Tim Avery, who is named after Tex Avery.

Simon & Garfunkel were an American folk rock duo consisting of singer-songwriter Paul Simon and singer Art Garfunkel. They were one of the best-selling music groups of the 1960s, and their biggest hits—including "The Sound of Silence" (1965), "Mrs. Robinson" (1968), "The Boxer" (1969), and "Bridge over Troubled Water" (1970)—reached number one on singles charts worldwide.Simon and Garfunkel met in elementary school in Queens, New York, in 1953, where they learned to harmonize and began writing songs. As teenagers, under the name Tom & Jerry, they had minor success with "Hey Schoolgirl" (1957), a song imitating their idols, the Everly Brothers. In 1963, aware of a growing public interest in folk music, they regrouped and were signed to Columbia Records as Simon & Garfunkel. Their debut, Wednesday Morning, 3 A.M., sold poorly; Simon returned to a solo career, this time in England. In June 1965, a new version of "The Sound of Silence" overdubbed with electric guitar and drums became a US AM radio hit, reaching number one on the Billboard Hot 100. The duo reunited to release a second studio album, Sounds of Silence, and tour colleges nationwide. On their third release, Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme (1966), they assumed more creative control. Their music was featured in the 1967 film The Graduate, giving them further exposure. Their next album Bookends (1968) topped the Billboard 200 chart and included the number-one single "Mrs. Robinson" from the film.
