IT'S ALIVE: How Frankenstein has influenced comics.


"Since the publication of Mary Shelley's famous work Frankenstein in 1818, the monster has lived on in our popular culture through films starring acclaimed actors such as Boris Karloff, through television shows in parody contexts, and even used in our breakfast cereal we eat every morning. Although, we never seem to think about how Victor Frankenstein's creation could be used in another literary medium besides the traditional novel format. Frankenstein has been used in comics and graphic novels since the early 1940's, utilized in both humorous and straightforward interpretations."
