 Comics Superstar Francesco Francavilla Debuts New Connecting Cover Series for Universal Monsters: Frankenstein by Michael Walsh The First Chapter of the Four-Part Limited Series Launches August 2024 LOS ANGELES, CALIF. (July 18, 2024) — Skybound Entertainment and Image Comics, in partnership with Universal Products & Experiences, revealed the full cover art for the connecting variant cover series by Francesco Francavilla (Detective Comics) for Universal Monsters: Frankenstein, the new four-issue limited comic book series from award-winning artist/writer Michael Walsh (The Silver Coin). The four-part connecting cover series captures key moments in sequential order from the film, as well as the iconic monster, paying homage to one of the most revered characters in all of horror. Longtime fans of the iconic 1931 Frankenstein film from Universal Pictures and new fans alike can expect to be completely enthralled by this new horror classic when issue #1 hits comic book shops on August 28, 2024. Comics superstar Michael Walsh resurrects one of the most iconic monsters of all time in a jaw-dropping, re-imagining of the horror hit. Readers can expect each issue of the limited series to tell the shocking story behind one of the corpse parts used to create the unforgettable monster in the original film. In this first issue, Dr. Henry Frankenstein begins his unholy quest to create life by robbing the grave of a decorated police officer to find necessary parts, specifically a strong pair of hands. But little does he know that the corpse has a son who is mourning a father – and that this young boy will forever change Frankenstein’s life. In addition to the main cover by Michael Walsh and the first of the four-part connecting cover series by Francesco Francavilla, Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1 boasts a variant cover lineup from top artists including Joshua Middleton, David Talaski and Christian Ward, as well as a blank sketch cover. Universal Monsters: Frankenstein is the third Universal Monsters comics series launch from Skybound, following James Tynion IV and Martin Simmonds’ Dracula (which netted Simmonds a BEST PAINTER/MULTIMEDIA ARTIST (INTERIOR ART) Eisner Award nomination) and Dan Watters, Ram V, and Matthew Roberts’ Creature From the Black Lagoon Lives! Frankenstein will be followed by more new limited series pairing the biggest names in comics with pop culture’s most iconic monsters. Universal Monsters: Frankenstein #1 (of 4) (Lunar Codes Below | SRP: $4.99) will be available at comic book shops and digital platforms including Amazon Kindle, Apple Books, and Google Play on Wednesday, August 28, 2024.
