While on an Arctic expedition with her scientist father, a young graphic novelist named Mary uncovers the journal of Dr. Victor Frankenstein. As Mary is drawn into Victor’s uncanny story of secret experiments to conquer death, she discovers that we all need to face our own fears… before they face us! A family-friendly spin on the Mary Shelley novel by Craig Francis, Rick Miller, and Paul Van Dyck, Frankenstein: A Living Comic Book confronts modern issues of climate change, artificial intelligence, and technology… monsters of our own making!
