Walter, the archenemy of The Mask, is a behemoth-sized mob muscle-man who never speaks and has taken a vendetta against Big Head (The Mask) for killing his employers.

Mob muscle-man who never speaks and never shows pain and is the only one who can in a degree hurt The Mask

Muscle man (literally) for the crime lord known as Rapaz. He is silent and loyal to his boss. He is first introduced holding down a drug addict who squealed on Rapaz to Lt. Kellaway. Later, Walter intervenes when a man pulls a gun on Rapaz. However, the man reveals himself to be Lt. Kellaway as The Mask (or "Big Head" as the comics called him.) Walter engaged Big Head in combat, causing the living cartoon character to feel pain for the first time. However, Big Head was able to supposedly kill Walter by sticking electrical circuits from a broken lamp post into Walter's mouth. However, it is revealed that Walter is alive and well. He attacked and killed another crime boss who had put a contract out on Walter on the belieft that Walter had betrayed them. After killing the mobster, Walter allowed himself to be arrested. He was eventually released thanks to corrupt District Attorney Steven Listor. Walter has come to clash with several wearers of the Mask and still manages to remain standing. This alone makes him a deadly force. This one time, Walter himself got the Mask, but fortunately, it wasn't able to fit his head.

Powers and Abilities

Walter has no actual superpowers. However, he doesn't really need any - his massive size and endurance makes him virtually indestructible. He has been shot, beaten, electrocuted, and possibly anything else in the book... and yet he still stands. Not only that, but his colossal strength is one of the few things that can actually cause pain to whoever wears the Mask. This makes Walter one the few biggest foes of Big Head.

Personality

In the animated series Walter never seems to exhibit a personality of any kind. He seems to be characterized only by his mute pursuit of the Mask. On the one occasion he managed to acquire it, it failed to work. This may imply that he has no personality or soul.
