#Frankenstein’s monster endures for a reason: because he incorporates many different fears & fantasies, many different theories & possibilities of monstrosity. Indeed, Junji Ito’s interpretation of the Creature embodies each of Jeffrey Jerome Cohen’s “seven theses” about what makes a monster. 1/15
Image of the cover of The Monster Theory Reader which features Jeffrey Jerome Cohen’s chapter “Monster Culture (Seven Theses).” There is also an image of Junji Ito’s Creature and a screenshot of Cohen’s seven theses, which are: Thesis I: The Monster's Body Is a Cultural Body; Thesis II: The Monster Always Escapes; Thesis III: The Monster Is the Harbinger of Category Crisis; Thesis IV: The Monster Dwells at the Gates of Difference; Thesis V: The Monster Polices the Borders of the Possible; Thesis VI: Fear of the Monster Is Really a Kind of Desire; Thesis VII: The Monster Stands at the Threshold… of Becoming

Cover of I JUST CAME FROM HELL. It shows a pregnant Jes holding her belly in front of a negative tree. A pair of bloody hands reach out to grab her. Page 1 Five Panels 1 - EXT. Wide shot. The entrance to Cebe’s Hand, a wild swampland in the Florida Panhandle. While not as wild as being inside Cebe’s Hand will be. There is still tons of foliage and greenery around. A deer drinks from a nearby bed of water. An alligator lies in wait. JES (Off-Panel): June 6th, 2017. JES (OP): Lisa Leung arrived in Devil’s Garden, Florida with her now deceased fiancé, Jonathan Johnson, to visit his estranged parents, William & Mary, also now deceased. 2 - The Alligator slowly and quietly swims up towards the deer, who unknowingly continues to drink. JES (OP): What was supposed to be a day of reconciliation transformed into a night of horrors. 3 - Suddenly, the deer jerks its head up from drinking. SFX: shf shf JES (OP) A night where only Lisa would survive. 4 - …and darts away before the Alligator can strike. JES (OP): Supposedly, a church fire would claim 33 souls that night. Their bodies have never been found. JES (OP): But that doesn’t explain what happened next. 5 - Lisa, the noise that alerted the deer, walks down a dirt road, naked and bloodsoaked. JES (OP): The following morning, as the sun’s light broke over the horizon… JES (OP): …Lisa was seen stumbling, naked and bloodsoaked, down an old dirt road that leads from Cebe’s Hand, a tangled web of swampland that stretches across the Florida panhandle. Page 2 Seven Panels 1 - Sheridan Porter, a white man in his late 50s with leather tan skin, drives a middle of the road pick up truck. Not new, but not a beater either. It’s well maintained despite its age. He had a quizzical look on his face as he tries to make sense of this figure he sees ahead. JES (OP): Sheridan Porter, a Good Samaritan, who happened to be driving to his favorite fishing spot, was the first to find her. 2 - Wide shot of the truck pulling over as it nears Lisa. JES (OP): When he noticed the state Lisa was in, he pulled to the side of the road to help. 3 - Sheridan exits his truck as Lisa passes him by. JES (OP): As Sheridan approached, he could hear her talking to herself. LISA (to herself): I don’t know. I don’t know. I took a leap of faith… 4 - Sheridan approaches Lisa who does not notice him at all. JES (OP): If this all wasn’t strange enough, Lisa didn’t even notice him. JES (OP): It was like she was somewhere else. Lost in her own mind. LISA (to herself): This isn’t right. It shouldn’t be possible, but you’re still here. 5 - Lisa collapses into Sherdian’s arms. JES (OP): Sheridan stopped her and asked for her name and she immediately collapsed in his arms. SHERIDAN: Ma’am, are you okay? What happened to you? 6 - She weakly looks up at him. We can see both of them in this panel. JES (OP): She looked at him, finally realizing where she was, and quietly uttered a single sentence. 7 - Extreme close-up on Lisa’s exhausted, bloodsoaked face. JES (OP): M-my name is Lisa Johnson, and… Page 3 Splash The burned down ruins of The Sacred Heart Church from EAT MY FLESH, DRINK MY BLOOD. Near the back of the ruins, where the altar would be. We see the tree in the image above. Dead and without leaves. Its branches rise above the ruins lifted like hands/arms reaching for the sun. The title logo displayed over it. I JUST CAME FROM HELL

Today is the birthday of legendary artist Bernie Wrightson (Oct. 27, 1948-March 18, 2017.)
A photo of Wrightson wearing a Frankenstein t-shirt, with several zombie hands reaching out for him. Three examples of his art. The top is a spread from his adaptation of Frankenstein, the second is the cover to House of Secrets #92, and third is Swamp Thing #1.

2/2 as the creature and all involved. Loved to see my late friend Bernie Wrightson in the credits: you could “feel” his Frankenstein all through the movie. Bravo, Guillermo, BRAVO!
P.S. stay tuned for a Frankenstein related thing to be revealed soon!
