Frankenstein #3

When a jailbreak coincides with an atomic bomb explosion in a remote valley, fifty escaped convicts are transformed into grotesque monsters—and Frankenstein is called in by the city to eliminate the threat. What starts as a dangerous manhunt takes an unexpected turn when Frankenstein infiltrates the monsters' hideout and their infatuation with his handsome appearance sparks a chaotic beauty contest with decidedly lethal consequences. This 1946 humor story plays vanity and violence for laughs as the situation spirals in ways nobody quite anticipated.

Frankenstein accepts a lucrative job as assistant to explorer J. Huntington Search, who's heading to Egypt to unearth mummies for museums—but when the full moon shines on the four mummies during the voyage home, the ancient curse proves far more real than either man bargained for. What started as a straightforward archaeological expedition becomes a comedy of chaos when the newly awakened mummies decide they'd rather enjoy their newfound freedom than cooperate with Frankenstein's original plan.

Frankenstein accidentally stumbles into Professor Goniph's time machine while fleeing a nylon-selling scam in 1946 Hollywood, and the pair embarks on a chaotic journey through time—landing in a future year (2046) under Martian invasion, then overshooting to 1646, with each temporal mishap bringing new trouble. It's a rollicking comedy that proves the Professor's machine works, even if getting home proves considerably messier than the trip out.
