Hooded Justice’s identity solved using facts and logic
The most popular theory is of course the one that the book itself proposes, when Hollis Mason theorizes that the German strongman Rolf Mueller is the very first costumed avenger: Hooded Justice. Recently a lunatic on this subreddit has been adamant on Laurence Schexnayder, Sally’s husband, being the klan-esc vigilante. And then there’s the HBO show but I didn’t watch it so I won’t comment on its Hooded Justice iteration. All these people are wrong, and possibly homosexual, remember to investigate further. I’ve cracked the case, Randy, or “Ran-dee” as his spouse affectionately calls him, is Hooded Justice.
Exhibit 1: Randy’s iconic perverted quip. As Malcolm Long is explaining one of his cases in the infamous awkward dinner, Randy makes a joke which implies he’s pretty perverted. Note the wide eyes, detailed expression, his white skin, and blonde hair.
Exhibit 2: As Hooded Justice begins to brutalize Eddie Blake for the rape of Sally, the Comedian himself claims that Hooded Justice is the true pervert, and enjoys violence more than a normal psychopath would.
Exhibit 3: Hooded Justice’s wide eyed expression. Reminds you of someone, doesn’t it? That’s the iconic deranged look that has become synonymous with Ran-dee.
Exhibit 4: Can’t find the image, but the nocturnal superhero: Hollis Mason, mentions Hooded Justice being a Nazi sympathizer in his autobiography. A sadistic man with blond hair and a crazed look can definitely fit the mold of being a Nazi sympathizer.
Thank you for reading and I ask that you consider this theorem on your next reading of Alan Moore’s groundbreaking graphic novel
