A partnership between Legendary Comics and Karloff Enterprises, Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein Starring Boris Karloff is a brand new graphic novel that was released this week.
This visually stunning graphic novel adaptation of Mary Shelley’s iconic horror masterpiece brings to life the definitive portrayal of Frankenstein’s creature by Boris Karloff, whose legendary performance has left an indelible mark on horror cinema.
This graphic novel introduces an all-new original design of Boris Karloff as Frankenstein’s creature, presenting a fresh yet faithful rendition of Shelley’s timeless story. The graphic novel reunites the award-winning creative team of Kerry Gammill and El Garing, known for the RONDO Award-winning Bram Stoker’s Dracula Starring Bela Lugosi, bringing their celebrated artistic and storytelling skills to one of horror’s most enduring characters.

Decades before the works of Edgar Allan Poe, Jules Verne, and H.G. Wells, 18-year-old Mary Shelley wrote what many regard as the first work of science fiction when she penned Frankenstein: or, the Modern Prometheus, which was published in 1818.
Over one hundred years later, in 1931, a hard-working but relatively unknown actor named Boris Karloff was cast to play Frankenstein’s monster in James Whale’s now classic movie adaptation. The film made Karloff a star and solidified Frankenstein’s monster as an icon of the silver screen.
Founded in 2011, Legendary Comics is driven by a passion for mythic entertainment and collaboration with industry luminaries.
Known for titles like Annihilator with Grant Morrison, Headwounds: Sparrow with Oscar Isaac, and Dracula: Starring Bela Lugosi, the company consistently pushes narrative boundaries. It excels in innovative storytelling through works like The Heart Hunter, Championess, and adaptations such as Dune and Enola Holmes: Mycroft’s Dangerous Game. With successes like Godzilla: Aftershock, Pacific Rim: Aftermath, and Skull Island: The Birth of Kong, Legendary Comics remains a leading storyteller, now presenting Justice League vs. Godzilla vs. Kong.
