In Batman 387, we see Black Mask get his mask burnt onto his face. Instead of the skull like face we all know and love, his face simply looks like the mask he was wearing at the time. Like so:

My question is, did he appear like this ever again?

Bonus questions:

What's the first issue he shows up with a skull face?

Do they ever explain why his face changed to the shape of the mask to a skull?

Yeah, he wore this for a while. Pre Knightfall. During Moench's run with Jones. Maybe in Brubaker's Catwoman run is when we see him look like a skull for the first time. But I could be wrong...

Think he also sported that mask in Chuck Dixon's Nightwing run... Although been awhile since I've read the first trade so may be wrong.

I believe that particular look first showed up in Greg Rucka & Frank Teran's 2-parter in No Man's Land.

Wasn't like his face shaped skull like, but he still had skin on his head?
