      @luisrosario3781 Před 4 lety +1

      I think the idea is that the mask is clear so Corey can paint his face as he pleases. That, and I think the mask is supposed to be not unlike what a burn victim would wear, maybe symbolizing a fresh start or new face of sorts. Maybe I'm stretching, but I remembered reading it somewhere.

    You guys have to remember, they wear the mask for personal reasons NOT for appearance. Corey's mask is plain because (according to a fan) it resembles a mask you wear when you have some sort of burn on your face. It has the feeling of acceptance from the public and feeling scared to be yourself in a way. (I clearly can not remember much of what the fan said). After the fan said that, my whole perspective of Corey's mask changed. I had to remember their mask aren't used for looks but the problems they are going through. Corey himself even responded on the fan's remark. He said that was the feel he was going for. Now I think Corey's mask is kinda creative and has some elements of Iowa (not all, SOME).
