Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1 Advance Review: Honoring the Appendages of the Icon

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.
