Maski Batmana. Kostium jako element narracji superbohaterskiej w komiksie
Masks of Batman. The Costume as an Element of Superhero Narratives in Comics

Summary/Abstract: The main goal of the article is to present the theme of mask and costume in the superhero comic’s narratives as a key element not only for visual aspects of superheroes but also their psychological background. Using an example of Darwyn Cooke’s „Batman: Ego” comic book, the author sees mask and costume as “subjectified” creations in Cooke’s work. They become starting points for the stories, which concentrate on the multilayered dependence between the mask-ed and un-mask-ed personality of a hero.
