 Hiya, Kids!

Author  Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley  

was born August 30, 1797, and so the Powers That Be have designated today--

To celebrate, here's a brand spankin' new WolfieToon!

And some previous efforts!

Eager Anticipation!

It's All Hallows' Eve Eve, Eve!

I mean, Elsa!  Sorry, didn't mean to catch you before you had a chance to finish getting ready!  

We'll wait a minute.

OK now?

Yes, you look ravishing!

Don't you think so, Boris?

"Oh, indubitably!  Shall I compare thee to a cold Autumn night?" 

Of course, by the time you see this post, it might actually be Halloween!

So, this post is, er, a Warm-Up!  Don't get carried away yet! 

  

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.)
