His name is Deucalion, a tattooed man of mysterious origin, a sleight-of-reality artist who's traveled the centuries with a secret worse than death. He arrives as a serial killer stalks the streets, a killer who carefully selects his victims for the humanity that is missing in himself. Detective Carson O'Connor is cool, cynical, and every bit as tough as she looks. Her partner Michael Maddison would back her up all the way to Hell itself-and that just may be where this case ends up. For the no-nonsense O'Connor is suddenly talking about an ages-old conspiracy, a near immortal race of beings, and killers that are more-and less-than human. Soon it will be clear that as crazy as she sounds, the truth is even more ominous. For their quarry isn't merely a homicidal maniac-but his deranged maker.… (mer)

Great graphic adaption of the original ( )

I'd like this better in the hands of another illustrator. Their characters look identical to those in the Anita Blake graphic novels. ( )

I had heard of the book (the novel this is based on), but I did not give it much thought, figuring it was just another Frankenstein remake or such. I picked up the graphic novel on a whim, and I am glad I did. This is not just a remake, but a very thoughtful look at the classic in a new way. It is framed as a mystery/detective story, but it has a lot more. Who are the detectives really chasing? The homicidal serial killer, or the doctor who made him? And what does Deucalion, the mysterious tattooed man with a long past have to do with everything? This book is engaging. It catches you from the start, and it does not let go. I read this in one sitting. I have not found the second part yet, but I will certainly pick it up when I do. Definitely a very good graphic novel. Who knows? I may go back and pick up the novel as well. ( )

4.0/5.0

A dark twist on the Mary Shelley classic, Frankenstein. The color tones used added to the mood, and dark premise. Frankenstein has 2 hearts, both taken from dead murderers in a prison graveyard.... ( )

From the time I saw the best of the Frankenstein films on TV when I was eleven - the original featuring Karloff's remarkable performance, Bride of Frankenstein, and Son of Frankenstein - I relished them even though they gave me the worst nightmares of my life.
