v for V

« point of vue.But who is this "V" ? " Who is but the form following the function of what and what I am is a man in a mask.

" Effectively V is wearing a long black coat and a Guy Fawkes's mask to hide his face . “Voilà! In view, a humble vaudevillian veteran cast vicariously as both victim and villain by the vicissitudes of Fate.
