When you find yourself trying to remember a show (or any works) that's on the tip of your tongue but just out of reach, come here - the collective brain of the TVTropes community can probably help. Post all the details you can remember (examples help). If you're looking for a trope, head over to Trope Finder. Have general questions about tropes? Visit Ask The Tropers!
The origin story of the Red Hood in Batman The Brave And The Bold goes like that, but somehow I assume that you'd remember if it was that. Batman The Brave And The Bold is good at being memorable. (In case it is that, though, the episode is "Deep Cover for Batman".)

I second that suggestion. That's pretty much got to be it.
Wrestler, bodybuilder. No hopes, no dreams.
V for Vendetta?
V FOR VENDETTA! Thank you!
Ugh I feel so stupid for not remembering that x.x
There's this scene, and it's been bugging me what it's from. In the scene, there is a guy looking in the mirror, wearing a mask. He takes off the mask but you don't see what's underneath and then he yells and smashes the mirror with the mask and... something. Basically some sort of breakdown. I think it's either a cartoon or a movie. The masked person wears a mask all the time and I'm pretty sure you never get to see his face. He might be the bad guy.
