Hooded Justice

Short Biography

Hooded Justice, whose real identity is never revealed, was the first ever masked adventurer and the lead influence for Nite Owl (Hollis Mason) and the rest of the early costumed heroes. He wore a hood and a noose, had the body of a wrestler, and was a charter member of the Minutemen.Although the press and many members of the public believed the Hooded Justice was in a relationship with fellow crime fighter Silk Spectre (Sally Jupiter) (to the extent that Laurie Juspeczyk believed that Hooded Justice was her father), in fact he was a homosexual who was involved with Captain Metropolis (Nelson Gardner). He also had sadomasochistic tendencies (see Sexuality, below).He is the only masked vigilante whose final fate is never fully resolved. It is suggested he may have been killed, but never proven.
