Frankenstein Alive Alive! #2 eBook Steve Niles Bernie Wrightson
Oh, Bernie Wrightson, great God illustrator of classic Gothic Horror. Where can you go wrong with Bernie Wrightson? Back in 1983, out of sheer love of Mary Shelley's classic novel, Frankenstein, comic illustrator Bernie Wrightson made a fully illustrated edition of the classic novel (currently available on amazon). The illustrations are nearly exactly what Mary Shelley described save for a strange liberty in making the creature's nose look like the nose of a skeleton. This was not described in the original novel and I was never quite sure of the point behind it. Oh, well. Bernie did the job for free. A nice, hard cover reprint of this book with an introduction by horrior icon, Stephen King is currently available on Amazon for less than thirty dollars.Bernie Wrightson was the illustrator for comic books for many years and even did the artwork for a Color the monster book back in the seventies. I used to have the color the monster book actually signed by Bernie. I bought it in Upstate New York. Now it has disappeared on me, probably accidentally thrown away by someone who did not realize what it was. He also did the art work for Stephen King's Cycle of the werewolf (made into the movie Silver Bullet) and Creepshow (also made into a movie).
Today Bernie Wrightson is working on a new project. A twelve part comic book series called Frankenstein: Alive, Alive! written by Steve Niles with artwork by Bernie Wrightson. This graphic novel is a brilliant sequel to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein. Despite being a comic book it is very true to how she wrote and how the characters behave and speak.
The very first volume includes insight into the mind of the creature and how he perceived his creator, the "arrogant" Victor Frankenstein. The story begins in 1920s Coney Island, which can make anyone nervous as this is where Andrew Lloyd Webber's questionable sequel to Phantom of the Opera, Love never Dies (despite the great song Beauty underneath) takes place, along with it's literary counterpart Phantom of Manhattan.
Frankenstein's Monster now lives as part of a freak show where he comfortably scares the Hell out of customers from the safety of the cloistered little troup of social outcasts. He flashes back to what happened at the end of Mary Shelley's novel, revealing what happened out on the ice and his own self-destructive yearning.
Volume 2 continues with this flashback allowing the create to meet and befriend a Victorian era scientist who takes pity on the creature and keeps him in his own home, giving him full access to his own knowledge and library. The creature is only reminded of his own monstrous form when the doctor's apparently sickly wife sees him and faints to the ground.
Volume 3 is not yet available but like with the artwork of the illustrated novel from thirty years ago the vivid and atmospheric illustrations really take you into the story. Steve Niles really understands the creature and the narrative flows like the original novel. I highly recommend this series for any fan of the Frankenstein creature.
