Frankenstein #14
Frankenstein #14 (1945) This issue contains multiple stories. One narrative involves Frankenstein's monster being transported to Africa aboard a ship, where a vengeful African wildman seeks to bring a token to the creature's grave to avenge a death. Another story features humorous vignettes about office workers and their everyday mishaps, including a painter, a messenger, a janitor, and an organist, culminating in workplace chaos. A third story depicts living trees in a lumber yard that attack a man, with the anthropomorphic trees using dialogue to coordinate their assault by striking him with logs and branches before dismembering him on a table.
