Frankenstein Joins Robin Hood, Dracula and Jekyll and Hyde

Your confusion is understandable. It was just the other day that Robin Hood spelled his name "Robyn" and was a she. That was in the Zenescope world. In the Mohawk Media/Eco Comics world, Robin Hood is the more traditional character, fighting a non-traditional battle against some heavy hitters of fiction.

Dracula vs. Robin Hood vs. Jekyll & Hyde will be published as a monthly, three-issue series, pitting the aforementioned title characters against one another. And Frankenstein will be thrown in for good measure.

British writer Chris Bunting says: "Frankenstein's Monster will play a pivotal role, not just in this series, but in a subplot bubbling away that will encompass many other titles from Eco Comics."

Frankenstein will first appear in the third issue. Chances are you won't recognize him as you previously have.

Bunting adds: "You will see Frankenstein in a way never portrayed. And this monster is not this issue's only legendary guest star, as a colossal character from the Robin Hood myth is also introduced."
