The Covers of Frankenstein : Doc Frankenstein No.6


Make that The AWARD-WINNING Covers of Frankenstein!

I was in Toronto last weekend to pick up an award (previously mentioned here) and I was delighted when, during the course of the ceremonies, Steve Skroce won the Joe Shuster Award for “Outstanding Cover by a Canadian Comic Book Artist” for Doc Frankenstein #6.

Skroce is an artist celebrated for his storyboard work on The Matrix films. He co-created the Doc Frankenstein character with Geoff Darrow, and the series is written and published, through Burlyman Entertainment, by the Wachowski Brothers.

Shown here are the award-winning standard cover and the alternate “sketch cover” to Doc Frankenstein #6, published last fall.

I previously blogged about Doc Frankenstein here.

This is off topic, but I'm surprised there has been no mention of Stan Winston's death on this blog. I saw MONSTER SQUAD last night and his Frankenstein Monster is probably one of the best after Jack Pierce.
