Story: When Hollis read about the Hooded Avenger in the paper, he decided that he would be the next masked adventurer. The name he got from his colleagues calling him Nightowl because he studied and trained all night instead of going out for a beer. Mason decided he liked the name and created a suit to match. The Nightowl had his debut early 1939, a year after he graduated from the police academy.
