Category:The Octopus

Throughout Will Eisner's work, the Octopus' face was never shown. He was always depicted wearing a pair of purple gloves with three stripes. Whenever the Octopus appeared in a story, he was either off-panel (except for his gloves) or hiding behind some object (like curtains or another person). Another way the Octopus kept his face hidden was the fact that he was a master of disguise.
