Full Text

The article investigates the dialectics of the relationship between the character of the film based on comic strips and his mask as an essential attribute of the genre, the characters of which are mainly reduced to external evidence. Since comic strips have nowadays become the multicultural phenomenon, it is viable to analyze the matter on the example of the three films by directors from different countries. These are typical examples of the main types of the forenamed dialectics. Each of them therefore fits well in its peculiar way into the modern social-psychological and social-political context, indicating the applicability of the genre.
