If I were to write about a superhero, what would be a plausible material for the mask?
Watching movies and superhero cartoons, I'm struck with this question: what material do they use for their masks? A lot of times, for the bigger over-the-head ones, artists seem to favor plastic, synthetic fabric, or light-weight metal. But what about the little ones, like Robin's? How does that little mask stay on his face? If I were to write about a superhero, what would be a plausible material for the mask? I need to know what materials a mask would use so that I know what should be available in the superhero's city. I would also like to have a scientific basis for what is used in the story.
