The seventh meeting of The Midnight Comic Club will begin a multi-part examination of one of horror’s most iconic characters: Frankenstein’s Monster! This particular episode will focus on five faithful adaptations of the story which showcases the mountains of despair that can fall on a human being — or monster — and still not fully consume them.

The five books I talk about in this episode are Bernie Wrightson’s Frankenstein, The Monster Of Frankenstein, Gris Grimly’s Frankenstein, Classics Illustrated Deluxe Frankenstein and Puffin’s Frankenstein The Graphic Novel.

And with that, you can listen to the episode here:

Here‘s that article I mentioned where Guillermo del Toro talked about Wrightson’s Frankenstein. It’s really good and insightful, give it a read.

If you want to read the Monster Of Frankenstein Spooklight on Marvel.com, you can! You can also read more about Marvel Unlimited here if you’re curious.

If you’re interested in the books I mentioned that I didn’t get a chance to read, this link will take you to the current printing of the Classics Illustrated take, this one will get you to Patrick Olliffe’s version and I’m still not sure what’s up with Junji Ito’s!

Ooh, I also mentioned the Larry Fessenden Blu-ray Collection which you can buy from Scream Factory!
