Readers will be mesmerized by the giant 3-D pop-ups in this graphic adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic novel. When the scientist Victor Frankenstein attempts to create a new being from dead corpses, he has little knowledge of the horrors that await—or of the anguish that his actions will wreak on his own creation. Illustrator Anthony Williams’s full-color scenes capture the grim atmosphere of Shelley’s novel in detail so that a new generation of readers can enjoy this horror classic.

About the Author

Mary Shelley was an English novelist, short story writer, dramatist, essayist, biographer, and travel writer, best known for her Gothic novel Frankenstein: or, The Modern Prometheus (1818). She also edited and promoted the works of her husband, the Romantic poet and philosopher Percy Bysshe Shelley. Her father was the political philosopher William Godwin, and her mother was the philosopher and feminist Mary Wollstonecraft.

Anthony Williams, The Comic Stripper, and his happy band of helpers have been creating cutting-edge cartoon, comics, and comic-book illustration for two decades. This includes drawing such icons as Spider-man, Superman, Batman, and The X-men. The Comic Stripper also creates artwork for a huge range of licensed characters including Ronald McDonald, Ben 10, and Scooby Doo. The work of the Comic Stripper has been featured in many national and international advertising and marketing campaigns, as well as illustrations for children’s books and concept illustration and storyboards for both live action and animation.
