Powers/Abilities: Faceache is "the Boy of a Hundred Faces", able to transform his features by 'scrunging'. His body extends beyond his face - other parts of his body can be transformed. He can gain other superhuman abilities by doing so - such as being able to fly or to tunnel at great speed.
By his own
description, he claims he can "re-shuttle me atoms and distort meself".
History: Unknown - his ability seems to be a natural talent.
Comments: Created by Ken Reid. First appearing in Jet, Faceache transferred to Buster when Jet merged with that title. He lasted until the early 1990's, although later stories might have been reprints. Thanks to Billy Hicks for this information.
CLARIFICATIONS: Not to be confused with
The Face, Golden Age hero
