Frankenstein #24
Frankenstein #24 The issue contains at least two stories. In the first, a group of men discovers the sleeping Frankenstein monster and attempts to kill it with a sledgehammer, but the creature awakens and attacks them, proving difficult to defeat. In the second story, a sea captain's crew is killed by dynamite, and a man named Olaf takes command of their ship to rescue a woman named Hilda trapped on an iceberg; later, a ghostly figure appears to guide the troubled Lester, revealing connections to Hilda and the ship's fate. Several weeks later, Lester drives with a woman named Lana, who confesses her difficulty in moving past her husband's death, while a spirit claiming to be her deceased husband Richard appears to guide her troubled mind.
