Gris Grimly's Frankenstein is a twisted, fresh, and utterly original full-length, full-color graphic-novel adaptation of Mary Shelley's original text, brought to life by acclaimed illustrator Gris Grimly. "Grimly enlivens the prose while retaining its power to both frighten and engage sympathy for the monster-creator Victor Frankenstein. This is a richly morose nightmare of a book, a primer for young readers on the pleasures and dangers of decadent languidness."—New York Times Book Review The first fully illustrated version to use the original 1818 text, this handsome volume is destined to capture the imagination of those new to the story as well as those who know it well. New York Times bestselling illustrator Gris Grimly has long considered Frankenstein to be one of his chief inspirations. From the bones and flesh of the original, he has cut and stitched Mary Shelley's text to his own artwork, creating something entirely new: a stunningly original remix, both classic and contemporary, sinister and seductive, heart-stopping and heartbreaking.

"Algunos dicen que este mundo está gobernado por la eterna batalla entre el bien y el mal, negro y blanco. Pero yo digo que no. La guerra es entre el negro, el blanco y el gris." Thera King es una estudiante de arte dramático que vive rodeada por la muerte. Ahora ella debe enfrentar una acusación por el asesinato de su madre. Tyler Richardson, su abogado defensor, intenta ayudarla pero ella desaparece llevándose muchos secretos. Tyler decide olvidarse del asunto y seguir con su vida. Sin embargo, las circunstancias lo obligarán a retomar el caso, pues ahora él es una víctima más. Mientras tanto, Thera está secuestrada por alguien que la odia lo suficiente como para mantenerla con vida sólo para torturarla. En medio de su sufrimiento, descubrirá que su salvación puede traicionarla y su enemigo, rescatarla. No obstante, le será difícil descubrir a la persona en quien puede depositar su confianza, porque después de todo, ella es la peor persona del mundo y merece ser tratada como tal. Al menos, así piensa su captor.

Crayton Breaux makes minimum wage clerking in a French Quarter voodoo shop aimed at tourists. It’s enough to pay the rent and keep him in beer and partying because, in New Orleans, every day is Fat Tuesday, brah! As for the “voodoo”? Well, the shop, with its skull-and-candles altar and clouds of incense, definitely spooks the tourists in from Iowa or Delaware. They clutch their go-cup hurricanes and nervously joke about sticking pins in dolls and gris-gris bags full of REVENGE ON YOUR ENEMY! spell powder. Crayton thinks it’s hilarious. More than a few of these idiots think this stuff’s real … He won’t be laughing long.
