As a dedicated gamer and anime enthusiast, it feels like we’ve been grappling with the clutches of piracy for what seems like forever in the world of anime.

In modern pop culture, few figures are as widely recognized as Frankenstein (often referred to as Frankenstein’s Monster by some) due to his legendary status. So it’s no wonder that Image Comics is reviving this character in their upcoming miniseries titled Universal Monsters: Frankenstein.

Unlike other characters who may be more openly villainous, Frankenstein has always evoked sympathy due to his status as a misunderstood being, one who never sought life and didn’t understand right from wrong.
