"Ben had drawn a group shot of a number of Hellboy universe characters (plus Lord Baltimore) together and included Frankenstein holding a staff that had the sword of Hyperborea atop it. "Frankenstein: New World actually started with artist Ben Stenbeck, though he doesn't know it," said Golden. This is the kind of weird-ass Frankenstein story that I've always wanted to read, and now I get to help write it!" I always wondered if we would see him again-and now, I guess we are! Working with Chris, Mike, and the amazing Peter Bergting has been an absolute blast. The last we saw of him was at the end of B.P.R.D. when he was leading some survivors of the apocalypse to the center of the earth. The stories that we got with the character were cool, but I most definitely wanted more. "I loved the idea of using him as a recurring character in his own adventures, so when Mike added him to the Hellboy universe, I was ecstatic. "I've always had a thing for Frankenstein's monster," said Thomas Sniegoski. Defying her elders, Lilja awakens the timeless oracle––once known as Frankenstein––to investigate the warnings and, perhaps, even explore the new world above. Safely tucked away inside the hollow earth where humanity survived after Ragna Rok, precocious young Lilja receives visions of a new darkness taking root on the surface. I just don't seem to be able to put a lid on this thing-which I guess is a good thing."
And then two minutes later I think we were on the phone talking about all the possibilities. But…when Chris and Tom came to me with the idea of having Frankenstein's adventures in Frog World, I think it took me about ten seconds to say YES. "And in that same issue, that little glimpse of the Frankenstein monster in the center of the earth, that's the last I thought we'd see of him. "At the end of B.P.R.D.: The Devil You Know when we burned down the world and then started it again with frog people, I really did think that would be all we'd see of it," said Mignola.
