[A Read-Online Comic] Stick-figure Summary of “Frankenstein” by Mary Shelley

Adapter’s note: While the following is a free adaptation of Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley’s classic work and contains certain probably obvious elements not present in the original, it also more or less follows the actual plot of the book as put down by Ms. Shelley. This means spoilers spoilers spoilers.

For your convenience and edification, any text taken directly from the original (whether as a whole chunk or piecemeal) is marked in blue, sort of like those versions of the Bible that put everything Jesus says in red. Only here it’s in blue. Capitalization and punctuation has occasionally been changed from the original text, and words and sentences have been removed from some extracts without indication.

Enjoy!
