Happy Birthday, Monster von Frankenstein

This grimly humorous one-shot from German publisher undergroundcomix.de reimagines the Frankenstein monster in a modern setting, where the creature's creator is forced to throw a birthday party for his unwilling, monstrous "son." Written and drawn by Bert Henning, the story leans into dark comedy and body horror, exploring themes of creation, responsibility, and the absurdity of forced celebration. Though a single issue, it stands as a distinctive, offbeat entry in the long tradition of Frankenstein-inspired comics, offering a uniquely German take on the classic monster mythos.
