Fiery Mask was a character from Timely/Marvel. He was really Doctor Jack Castle, a young physician called in to investigate the appearance of apparent zombies in town. His investigation leads him to a house where he encounters a big headed zombie guy and a beautiful zombie girl along with some giant buzzards. Ultimately he encounters a huge, grotesque, looking guy who's engineered the whole zombie thing. Part of the zombie treatment apparently includes hypnosis, but Jack Castle is also an experienced practitioner of the hypnotic arts and when the bad guy amps up the zombie-making machine it explodes. The explosion gives Jack Castle a range of superhuman powers and makes his eyes glow under certain circumstances. Knocking off the bad guy and rescuing the (now un-zombied) girl, they escape as the house burns down. Adopting a superhero costume and covering his fiery eyes with a mask, Jack takes on crime as the new hero Fiery Mask. He appeared in a few issues of Daring Mystery Comics and one of Human Torch Comics until his popularity waned. Although Marvel has resurrected a number of their Golden Age characters over the years I'm not sure Fiery Mask received such treatment. The figure was made from the body, including arms and legs of a Toy Biz Captain America figure, while the head is from a Robin figure. Fiery Mask had a couple of different costumes in his short run. This is representative of one of them. 

This custom action figure set was part of a one-of-a-kind collection crafted by a lifelong comic book historian and fan. His deep love for the heroes and villains of the Golden Age to Modern day inspired him to bring forgotten characters back to life through his custom work. Each figure he created was a labor of passion. Often, the only physical version of a character ever made, built to honor the stories and imagination that shaped early comic history. Though he has since passed, his legacy lives on in these unique creations. We are honored to help share his artistry with collectors who appreciate both the craftsmanship and the spirit behind it. The figures have been stored for years and may show degrees of wear or require minor touch-ups, but each one carries the heart of a true fan’s tribute to the history of comics.
