The Death of Victor Frankenstein

Victor Frankenstein deserves no pity for what he made of himself. Oh, perhaps he weathered the cruelties of existence worse than some; still his total retreat from the world remained a luxury verging on self-abuse. In twelve years spent shut up in his manor, eating away at…

Before he made a name for himself building men out of corpses, Victor Frankenstein studied alchemy. Twelve years after his greatest failure, a visit from a man who would dare the unthinkable forces Frankenstein to confront the limits of reason as the two of them embark on an experiment far madder than any Frankenstein has ever attempted before.


The Death of Victor Frankenstein is a gay and trans take on the Frankenstein story, inspired by horror movies of the 1930s.


It’s here! Yes, this is the Frankenstein story I’ve been promising. It’s 9k of repressed desires, magic, and mad science. The last sequence in particular I think is far and away the best thing I’ve ever written and has gotten a number of people to text me long strings of swearing.

Had a dream this was a real game and one of the methods to get moisture was to kill people in the desert so you could use an ability called “Wrath of God” to vaporize them with a lazer.

Maybe you can appreciate this: once in a lifetime has been living in my head rent free for the last few days but it somehow it got twisted up with Dune (religious and water imagery maybe?) and now I can't the imagine of Paul lost in the waters of life sauce dancing as visions of the future go by while Once in a lifetime plays loudly

And you may find yourself

Living in a shotgun sietch

And you may find yourself

In another part of the galaxy

And you may find yourself

Behind the hooks of a large sandworm

And you may find yourself

In a beautiful cave

With a beautiful wife

And you may ask yourself:

Well—

How did I get here?

More Dune (Feyd, it’s just Feyd) fanart.

A pair of two-panel comics.

Technically these also relate to the foiled-assassination chapter, but the more comics I made, the more and more detached they became from anything that actually happens in the book lmao.
