Prometheus Graft Is a Murder Mystery Starring Frankenstein's Monster
What happens when Frankenstein's Monster becomes Europe's most preeminent detective? Find out in this exclusive preview of Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death's End.
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has inspired various comics, and a new Oni Press series, Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death's End, might join that list. The series, written by George Northy and illustrated by Caitlin Yarsky, casts Frankenstein's Monster as an intrepid detective. The cover art features contributions from Yarsky, Eric Powell, Gabriel Rodriguez, and Patricia Martin.
The story follows Prometheus Graft, a gentleman detective who has left his underground life behind after years of hiding. After regaining his genius-level intellect, he now solves the world's most perplexing mysteries. Graft's journey begins when he is summoned to the remote Romanian castle of Death's End, where an immortal lord gathers Europe's most feared supernatural beings to broker a peace treaty.
However, the treaty will soon be threatened when one of the prominent guests is found murdered in the castle's hedge maze. As suspicion and bloodshed escalate, Graft must use his instincts and bloodstained clues to uncover the truth before all hell breaks loose. The first issue of Prometheus Graft: The Slayings at Death's End #1 is set to release on December 9, and readers can preorder a copy at their local comic shop.
