How to approach it
Instead of chasing one celebrated name, chart the many formats that generate concealed figures and take an obscure entry from each. Comic books give the deepest reservoir, from headline champions to villains who appear in a single panel; cinema and television add killers, spies and armoured troopers; animation, imported cartoons and interactive titles supply another layer. With a shortlist in hand, sort the candidates by how little exposure they have rather than by how tidily they match the phrasing, since the scoring rewards rarity. Copy each name exactly as its source spells it, digits and punctuation included, and hold two backups in case your obvious pick was already claimed. Proofreading costs nothing and protects a solid entry.
Get a hint
Begin with the broadest reservoir: costumed crime-fighters and rogues from long-running comic books, since nearly all of them conceal at least part of the head as part of the outfit.
A little more
Broaden into screens: horror killers, armoured space troopers, heroes of live-action serials and theatrical wrestlers all fit, and their covering usually doubles as a symbol or a plot device.
One step further
For rarity, drop the famous names and take a bit player from a cartoon, a niche game or a regional film, where the covering shows up in one line of dialogue or a costume list.

Why these answers count
The reveal exposes a very flat middle: 4287 entries sit at 85 points, so almost any genuinely concealed figure below the winning name earns the same reward, and only 196 land at 60. The lone 100-point entry is a vintage costumed hero rather than a current blockbuster property. Seeing Action Mask and Agent Carolina priced identically to the rest shows the grader is not ranking fame; it is checking whether your pick had already been spoken for by an earlier player. The upside therefore lies in a narrow footprint, such as a supporting player from a cartoon, a regional champion or an esoteric game boss. That Moonlight Mask holds the summit proves the point: instantly legible to a specialist, invisible to a mass audience. Chasing the biggest franchise burns the attempt, because those names were exhausted long before you sat down. A quiet, precisely spelled choice from an overlooked corner beats a famous one.
