The fabulous Mike Ploog renders the very best Monster, with apologies to and no slight of Berni Wrightson. Marvel Comics took a huge chance with this series, setting in the late 19th century and spreading the "origin" out over the first three issues. Small wonder sales dictated another cryogenic suspension, and modern-day adventures by issue #12 (all the better to team up with Spider-Man).
The Blog of Frankenstein is your daily destination for vintage Frankenstein-related goodies, including posters, lobby cards, stills, toys, and other coolness! And yes, I know that Frankenstein was the doctor, and not the monster... but the term has become such common use thanks to toys and the like over the years that I don't have a problem sometimes using "Frankenstein" to refer to the monster.
I have been a Navy journalist, word processor, graphic designer, medical assisting student, cook, and truck driver, and am currently an eBay seller as well as an employee at a big retail store. I have been and always will be into comics, sf, tv, cartoons, monsters, oldies rock, and lots of other stuff.
