The mask in the comic showed expression. There are several time where Destro is drawn with his mouth open while speaking.
There are two masks in the movie. The McCullen ancestral mask and Destro's new mask.

The flashback to his first meeting with the Baroness was drawn years later after the cartoon (in mine humble opinion) had dominated the style of his appearance with a moving mask.
I think it actually was inconsistent. Some artists would portray the mask as a liquid-metal cartoon type mask, and others would take the solid piece expressionless route. |

i think what happened with the cartoon Destro was the same thing that went on with ALL cartoons back then with "masked" characters. fred flintstone could be wearing a saber-toothed tiger costume with a full over the head mask, but whenever fred would talk the mouth of the cat would move as if the cat was speaking. or if captain n and simon belmont got into a horse costume, whenever they would talk, the horses mouth would move too. of course i just made up these instances, but the concept was true. i never understood that as a kid.

The word around the camp fire is this............
It's a super early reference shot of Destro. Not even close to being finished. But it may turn out to be real. Even tho it's super early please feel free to explain how awful that looks.

Hmm, you all do remember this is supposed to take place in 2019, right?
No, it's not a Cyberman. (Hee, I can go on and make "Doctor Who" jokes like this all day. ) Anyway...I think I prefer him with the mask off.

That's the exact image I was thinking of that illustrated the change in the way Destro was drawn. In his early appearances, his mask stayed the same.
He even comments on this in a thought bubble in one scene where CC is hosting a dinner with the COBRA leaders Baroness, Major Bludd, Scarface and Dr. Venom. At this time, CC doesn't know the Baroness and Destro are lovers and Destro thinks to himself wondering if CC can read him even behind the mask. Also, when it appears the Baroness is killed when her HISS explodes, Destro's mask never changes expression. |
