Out Now: Frankenstein and Its Legacy in the Comics

Good news to share.

I just received my contributor's copy of the International Journal of Comic Art, vol. 23, no. 2 (Fall/Winter 2021), which includes my bibliography of scholarship on Frankenstein in the comics. The listing was created as a resource distributed at a presentation on the novel's bicentennial in 2018 and delivered at Bristol Community College in Fall River, Massachusetts, where I'm working as an adjunct.

The full citation is listed below if anyone needs to track down a copy. Copies of the volume can be purchased from IJoCA's website; there was talk recently of digital copies of the journal, but that information does not seem listed yet.

Here's the full citation: 

Torregrossa, Michael A.“Frankenstein and Its Legacy in the Comics.” International Journal of Comic Art, vol. 23, no. 2, Fall/Winter 2021, pp. 432-40.
