| Does anyone else think the monster on page 41 looks like the one-eyed monsters from flint baker? |
|
| Nice team-up of the Prize heroes in the Frankenstein feature. Reminds me of when the Avengers got together to stop the Hulk. |

| Synopsis | Because he is being called to Washington D.C. on defense matters, Bulldog Denny calls together a group of heroes to deal with the Frankenstein monster, who has not been stopped from ravaging many areas of the country. When the monster is weakened, the Green Lama repeats magic Tibetan words that seem to send the monster into another world where he faces a variety of fearful foes. Then reality sets back in and the heroes force the monster off a cliff to his apparent doom. |

| Notes | Art was previously attributed to Munson Paddock, but the art is distinctly different from the Buck Saunders art in Headline Comics #13-18 (1945-1946), which more closely resembles Paddock’s general style, such as the use of big eyes, long noses, and starry visuals for energetic movement. |
