Mary Shelley’s timeless gothic classic accompanied by the art of
legendary illustrator Bernie Wrightson live on in this gorgeous
illustrated adaptation of Frankenstein—featuring an introduction
by Stephen King. Few works by comic book artists have earned the
universal acclaim and reverence that Bernie Wrightson’s
illustrated version of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s Frankenstein
was met with upon its original release in 1983, which vividly
presented the timeless, terrifying tale of one man’s obsession to
create life—and the monster that became his legacy. A generation
later, this magnificent pairing of art and literature is still
considered to be one of the greatest achievements made by any
artist in the field. This book includes the complete text of the
original groundbreaking novel and approximately fifty original
full-page illustrations by Bernie Wrightson—created over a period
of seven years—that continue to stun the world with their
monumental beauty and uniqueness. This edition also contains
introductions by #1 New York Times bestselling author Stephen King
and author Mary Shelley, as well as supplemental material including
a history of the novel, a chronology of Mary Shelley’s life and
work, and the historical context of Frankenstein for readers.
"Wolves of the Calla" is the highly anticipated fifth book in

He has become a modern legend, this mysterious creature of the
Louisiana bayou. Feared as a monster, hailed as a god, by turns
wonderfully benevolent and pitiless in his wrath, the Swamp Thing
has carved his unique niche in the American Landscape. Writer Len
Wein and legendary horror artist Bernie Wrightson, the original
creators of the most complex creature in comics weave a haunting
tale of man and monster in one impressive Absolute Edition!
Collects House of Secrets #92 and Swamp Thing #1-13
Inspired by Mary Shelley's immortal gothic horror tale,
Frankenstein Alive, Alive brings new life to the Promethean
monster, courtesy of Steve Niles (30 Days of Night) and Bernie
Wrightson (Frankenstein, Swamp Thing). Victor Frankenstein's
cobbled together creature continues his adventures, embarking on a
journey to discover his own humanity. This collection includes the
four-issue series along with an extended gallery section of
never-before-seen layouts and pencils by Wrightson, all scanned
from the original art. Additional art is supplied in the final
chapter by Kelley Jones (at Wrightson's request), who stepped in to
complete the series upon the comic book legend's untimely passing.
