Doc Frankenstein (published 2004 to present) is a comic book created by Geoff Darrow and Steve Skroce , written by the Wachowski Brothers (Andy and Larry, better known for their work on '' The Matrix ''), and drawn by Steve Skroce. The book is published bimonthly by Burlyman Entertainment , though recently they have fallen behind this deadline quite a bit (most likely because of the Wachowski Brother's involvement in the film adaptation of V For Vendetta ). Four issues have been released as of January 2006. The comic tells the story of Frankenstein 's monster, who survived the events of Mary Shelley 's novel and adopted his creator's namesake as his own. He has since become a hero over the ages (flashbacks show him as a gunslinger in the Wild West, a soldier in World War II , a supporter for teaching of the evolution in 1925, and a supporter of Roe Vs. Wade in 1972). However, his liberal viewpoint has made him a target of religious zealots and fundamentalists, who have sought to kill him over the years without success. AWARDS ''Doc Frankenstein'' was nominated for the 2005 Eisner Award for best new series. EXTERNAL LINKS
