Bernie Wrightson's illustrated adaptation of Frankenstein, originally published by Marvel Comics, set a high-water mark for illustration in the early 80's. The original art pieces disappeared into collections decades ago, and it was only through the tireless efforts of collectors like director Frank Darabont, that the original art boards were located and scanned with modern methods. Because of that process, Nakatomi has been able to offer these stunningly dark and beautiful images as hand-printed silkscreen prints. Their first print suite of Frankenstein images was a great success, and they're very proud to present the second set to the Nakatomi Nation. But they wanted to offer it to the previous buyers FIRST. Everyone who pre-orders from this will also receive a special 18x24 print by Bernie, never before offered. They're keeping that one under wraps!
-Purchasers of this set will get first crack at the next Bernie Wrightson project- a super-lush 10 color recreation of one of his famous paintings in the coming months.
-Nakatomi will be checking names on orders against our database to make sure early buyers are previous set purchasers.
