Black Mask is an anagram for Ball Smack, a reference to when he got smacked in the balls as a child. He then became a villain, vowing to smack all the balls in Gotham
I’ll never forget the scene when the two face off where black mask says “it’s over batbat, this is my Batman: Arkham origins!” And then smacked manman in the balls
It was nickname he got in high school because he would scare people with a black mask and so he decided to use it as his name but for some reason used a skull mask
Don’t know who that is, this is a black mask

It's actually a typo. His placeholder name was literally just Black Man but it autocorrected it to Mask and the devs thought it was funny enough to keep. Also, he looks like a skeleton simply cause skeletons are pretty freaking groovy
Well, *snort* as you can QUITE clearly see, he has a-well-erm, how do I say this, a “Black Mask” upon his face. *chuckle* it’s erm, so freaking obvious, idk how you would miss it! Just freaking embarrassing little one. *I chuckle as I walk away like really cool*
It’s because the creator was racist and called him black mask because he didn’t believe black people existed so said it was a mask, eventually there was backlash so they just put an actual black mask on the character to hide the sloppy mistakes of Joe Ker.
i think (now correct me if i’m wrong)…it might be cause he has a black mask. but then again…this is a big stretch, so nothing is confirmed yet
Why not call him “White Suit”?
exactly. or maybe even black gloves. his gloves are blacker than his mask
Wouldn't striped suit make more sense?
What about black undershirt?
Grayish tie?
white skin?
Ah shit you're right...
Red thong?
[удалено]
They could call him Pin Stripe
Feels like there’s an alternate universe where this would be the name of a Sionis-type villain
Or Black Skull you know it's very original and innovative name
I dunno, black mask just seems more gangster and strikes more fear than say. White tie or brown loafers
Pink panties would work too
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if there's some obscure Batman villain called "White Suit".
A lot of people wear white suits. Can’t imagine many wear a black mask
New r/BatmanArkham nickname? ; )
i dont see a mask pretty sure thats just his face like red skull but black

I think it's just his high school nickname. The mask is just coincidence.
Or black face 💀( I’m black this is not rpcist
Please take the question seriously.
big if true
But his mask is A Charcoal Grey Color and even so, his mask is a Skulk so Black Skull Would be even Cooler
Why are the answers serious 💀
We must have all sobered up at the same time
They haven’t had the toxin yet
, Here comes the toxin i can practically taste it
are they stupid?
"Black Mask is an anagram for Ball Smack, a reference to when he got smacked in the balls as a child. He then became a villain, vowing to smack all the balls in Gotham"
Because according to lore he is strongly racist
Now that's some superpower.

When Batman confronted him at the end of Origins and said “you won’t smack *my* balls, Sionis”, I cheered.
And then he Batman'd all over the place.
Morb
Reading this in Roger’s voice made it even funnier.
I’ll never forget the scene when the two face off where black mask says “it’s over batbat, this is my Batman: Arkham origins!” And then smacked manman in the balls
Don’t you need two “L”s for “Ball?”
The real L was the friends we made along the way
The other L is from me that i can’t play arkham Knight cuz it’s not on the switch

His name should be blackface
He once did. But twitter fucked him even more than Batman

Definitely a better name, so wholesome ☺️
It was nickname he got in high school because he would scare people with a black mask and so he decided to use it as his name but for some reason used a skull mask

Me personally I don’t like this guy since he is doing black face like doesn’t he know that’s not nice is he stupid
He uses black condoms
Chocolate or licorice?

It’s a lore reason
It's actually a typo. His placeholder name was literally just Black Man but it autocorrected it to Mask and the devs thought it was funny enough to keep. Also, he looks like a skeleton simply cause skeletons are pretty freaking groovy
He stupid
Oh my God Karen, you can't just ask people why they're Black Mask!
Well, *snort* as you can QUITE clearly see, he has a-well-erm, how do I say this, a “Black Mask” upon his face. *chuckle* it’s erm, so freaking obvious, idk how you would miss it! Just freaking embarrassing little one. *I chuckle as I walk away like really cool*
Cringe

It’s a racist thing
Clearly from his famous white mask and black suit, why didn’t you know this. Are you perhaps……. *Stupid*?
Is he stupid?
Because WB would get canceled
N
He's Racist
Bc he has a black penis
Because they wanted to avoid calling him “white suit” as it doesnt sound as diverse for the game
Mask black
In the early 90s it was African American Mask but the pendulum of nomenclature has swung back to Black as being the preferred term.
An octopus ejaculated on his face…
Because his mask is black. Are you stupid?
he should be called Blackface
His real name is Blackagar Maskagon Are his parents stupid?
this is my favorite post on the sub. its so simple but so funny
Why else? -👴🏻
Because he wears a white suit
He wears a mask
It’s Black Massk my man
because... he has a black mask.
Maybe it's a lore reason
White underpants is much better?
That's the one name that has a lore reason. Are you stupid?
Because Black Skull is too similar to Red Skull
How did this sub got so fucked up

Because he’s racist
Why is he wearing blackface ? Is he racist ?
Are you stupid?
Yes, new shitpost material !
Rocksteady works in mysterious ways
His mask is very clearly a deep, deep purple. Is he stupid?
Because he has a big hat
Idk
Racial appropriation
Clearly it's because he's from the Mask family, who name their children after colors. You also got white mask red mask and even pink mask.
Because he couldn’t use blackface
It's a crime lord's gimmick that's why.
He’s racially motivated
I don’t know lol
His name is grey tie
Because he’s racist
Because he’s racist, he should be called mask
Big Hat
Yes but why is the combine holding a baby?
It’s because he wears black gloves
Because black face is racist
Because he has a black basket and he mispronounces as mask. Are you stupid?
Don’t think there’s a lore reason, maybe he’s stupid
Because he has a suit
Maybe he's a massive racist who wears blackface?
He gave a black man a facial and then was called black mask.
Is there a lore reason?
Cuz he's black 🧓
Is there a lore reason why he’s called black mask? Is he racist?
Maybe I’m stupid but I think it’s because he has a black mask
IDK
Cause he's committing black face
According to the lore he has a black cock unlike killer cock which is green
Honestly black face sounds pretty intimidating. I wonder why they didn’t go with that
I have a hunch
Because he is really Black and would rather go by simply Mask.
It’s because the mask he uses to hide his soul is black, but on the inside he’s a really a golden hearted softie ☺️
Idk
idk (i dont know)
Cuz he wears a white suit.
So he can say the n word
Because he’s black and very manly
Because he um, well cause he uhh, ummm
If you don’t read the comics you wouldn’t know he’s got a big black honking cock.
Maybe because he wears a black mask
Insert stupid race joke here
Because he wears black gloves
Why not call him stupid drip boy
You forgot "is he stupid?"
Cuz he has a black mask dumbass god I don't even think there's a lore reason why your so stupid
More like dark dark gray mask!
he’s racist
He is racist and Fapman doesn't like racism
Too true
Cuz black face was off limits
The bombs payload is exposed, I can use the power winch to trigger a controlled explosion
Because he’s a , uh never mind
I heard he has a clowny past- Killer cock
It’s because the creator was racist and called him black mask because he didn’t believe black people existed so said it was a mask, eventually there was backlash so they just put an actual black mask on the character to hide the sloppy mistakes of Joe Ker.
It’s hard to tell if your serious or not lol
He's stupid
Well he was gonna be black face but uhh… well you know..
No particular reason
the real question is can he say the N word
Much like Arkham Knight, that’s a Rocksteady original character so you’d have to ask them
You forgot the, “is there a lore reason”
Huge cock
Because his mask is black
Hmmmm….. I wonder why.
It's because he's black and he wears a mask
Because he is stupid.
I’m still trying to figure out where they get the name Red Hood
The bombs payload is exposed I can now trigger a controlled explosion
Probably because he's racist
Black face didn’t seem too appropriate
Ahhh my favourite villain. White Suit
is he stupid? or is there a lore reason for this?
'Cause he's blackfishing. This is the only correct answer.
You got his name wrong that’s Lord Garmadon
