Frankly, My Dear


Frankenstein is probably my favorite feature creature.  

Or, if you haveta go all "The Big Bang Theory" Sheldon, yes, properly, it's "The Frankenstein Monster."



There have been many, many attempts in the last eight decades to reconceive the Monster, but director James Whale, star Boris Karloff, and make-up maestro Jack Pierce set forever how everyone envisions him in the 1931 movie from Universal Pictures.. 








If you've never seen the first two movies, especially "The Bride of Frankenstein," you're in for a treat when you do.








You probably have seen these:  






(Those are still a couple of my personal favorites!)

And here are my last two takes on the Universal Frankenstein*-- Enjoy!






(*I don't know if that means, "the final ones I'll do," or "the latest ones I did."  Time will tell, time will tell.)

    1. Thank you very much, Minelle! Well, familiarity has taken some of the edge off Frankenstein, but if you think about it, he is an unsettling concept!

  2. Thanks for sharing your toons, I didn't see all of these. The smacking her butt off is one of my all time favorite toons.

    1. It's my delight to delight you, Kaki! Thank you! Yes, the Bride losing her seat is one of my faves, too, and for a while, I thought I was the only one to giggle every time I saw it!!

  3. Ha Ha Ha! I love your Halloween toons! If only Wolfie could edit the conclusion of other movies and make a spanky ending...

    Oh. Is Halloween over? Halloween can't be over, I still have Fun Size Butterfingers left. Hmmm. Guess I'll go take care of that right now. :-)

    1. Hm, that's funny, I was thinking of fun size things at Larken's house, too, but not really fingers, buttery or otherwise!

      Thank you, thank you, I'm glad you love these! There definitely should be a lot more movies with spanky endings and everyone would feel warm and happy!
