Roy Thomas Presents Frankenstein: The Classic Series Written and Drawn by Dick Briefer #7
In "Mark of the Werewolf," the Frankenstein monster—frozen in ice and surviving through decades of global exhibitions—awakens when a plane crash disables his refrigeration. Found by a woman named Claudia as the ice melts, he’s thrust into a sudden crisis when a mysterious group of mummies rises from the dead and takes her as their queen. Written and drawn by Dick Briefer, this striking entry in Roy Thomas Presents Frankenstein: The Classic Series blends gothic dread with pulp adventure, all rendered in Briefer’s distinctive, expressive style. The cover, also by Briefer, captures the eerie moment of awakening with haunting precision.

The monster is found by a woman named Claudia, who is around when the ice melts and Frankenstein arrives. Soon after, a group of mummies arise from "the dead" and take the woman as their queen, forcing the monster to rescue her.
