This style of mask originated in Venice, Italy, for use during Carnival, but now is strongly associated with the superhero genre. Its usefulness as a disguise varies; in “Real Life”, while covering the eye area is surprisingly effective against people who don’t know the masked individual personally, it doesn’t obscure enough of the face to fool anyone who’s familiar with them out of costume. “Suspension of Disbelief” may be required when the hero is rescuing close friends or family members who aren’t in on the secret… A domino mask will often compose the third part of “Coat, Hat, Mask”. For villains, a domino mask is also one of the standard accoutrements of the cartoon burglar. They are also commonly associated with raccoons, famously sneaky and thieving animals whose eye markings resemble the domino mask. Bonus points if the mask also removes the wearer’s irises and pupils… ~ Domino Mask – TV Tropes
