just yesterday at publix grocery store a guy comes up to me and says hey master legend.at first i acted like i didn't know what he was talking about but he brought up Alias Punch the band.he told me i can really wail on the guitar and knew it was me.i think my wierd voice gave me away but then not long ago another person called me out. i was in the dollar tree and this worker there says " hey i know who you are i read about you in rolling stone, your the super hero master legend". i said to him don't say that too loud as by then i noticed a bunch of people looking at me.what can it be giving me away?

It's the voice. It could happen to me too. It's the voice.

If you have to squint because the light is incredibly bright, it's either Master Legend or the sun.


The one guy could be because of your voice, but the girl had only read a magazine article, so she had to have gone by the shape of your face and hair. Unless she had read the article and then did some research on you.

The hair, your voice
let's be honest you're a very recognizable man ML
your mask does't really shield you

Maybe you should start tucking your hair under a hat when you're not in uniform

honestly.... I don't think a mask could hide me either. I've got such a unique personality. let's face it, who wouldn't be able to tell I was just Joe King? lol Wink

but yeah ML, I think we'd all know it was you on the street

You might be surprised at how easily a person can identify you when you are not in character (not sure how else to say that) I have had kids recognize me from ALL of my costumed personalities (except CFtC) and thats one of the reasons I decided to not hide my identity.

One of my favorites was the kid who shouted at the Easter Egg Hunt when I ame out as the rabbit..."Look Mom...it's my Sunday School teacher"

I'm the same way ML. Around here I can be in full gear and people call me by my name. Even when I did the full face mask. I guess I am just too hot to hide behind a mask. LOL Guys like us have to stick together ML.

Well, unless everyone here pulls off the spidey look, I don't think anyone will get away with going through a town of people who are familiar with you.

Cut the hair short and sew in some fake hair into the master helmet to make it seem as though the legend still has long hair

Actually, I was out in uniform one time picking up a donation for Saskatonian Help and passed a couple friends of mine. I was nervous, but they didn't recognize me.

Later, though, they mentioned seeing some guy walking through the neighborhood with a large box in his arms, and that they thought he might be me because of his build, except his face was covered by a ski mask and sunglasses so they couldn't be sure.

Meh. Good enough for me. Smile

The Skimask Is not very practical because that is usually the first thing a bad guy uses to hide his face when commiting a robbery I go with a ski touqe and a halloween mask in summer I tone it down to a simple skidoo hood with the mask or a nice pair of shades I am also a very talkitive guy when in the suit but when Im with my family in my secret id I tend to keep to myself in the background rarely talking to people unless I really had too
