Frankenstein, Agent of S.H.A.D.E. #14

I have been an advocate of this series for a while now. I have really enjoyed it from the very start, but this issue delivers, by far, the best installment of the series yet. Matt Kindt's script isappropriatelyominous, at times hilarious, heart-breaking, and downright damning. This is an issue that definitely deserves to be included in the conversation when discussing the epic Rotworld. It is so very frustrating to see that the comic buying public chose not to keep this series going. What an amazing issue and I assure you that this book deserves these marks. Read Full Review

It's easy to write off a lame duck title, especially when it's playing a support role in a larger event; but, it would be a mistake to look past this month's issue of Frankenstein. Read Full Review

Kindt earns his stripes by not only participating in the "Rotworld" crossover, but also by his continuous expansion of the Frankenstein and S.H.A.D.E. mythology, delivering a handful of new acronyms that are as comic book sci-fi as can be. Kindt further seasons the issue with a buddy film zest, with Frankenstein as the straight man while Velcoro cracks wise and plays the card. That dynamic makes Frankenstein's occasional one-liners even more impactful and even comical. When the dust settles and this issue closes, Kindt delivers a fun story that nicely balances plot and character as Frankenstein fights against the terrible and unknown. His quest nearly complete, Victor Frankenstein's creation has a few more battles to finish before he can rest. Although there are only a pair of issues left, Kindt and company still deliver the good, the bad and even the ugly -- but the ugly is undoubtedly a plus for this issue as Ponticelli makes ugly look so good.

. . $3, 20pgs. Great cover. Mucho ADs! . . This issue busts into some Killer fights with giant creatures, of which the design and use of such are awesome. Ponticelli and Faucher shine in this issue, and im still enjoying the colors. Kindt continues to bring a focused, seperate 'xover' but still jumps to use unexplained tech, etc. Still its fun read, and this issue kicks a bit of ass!
