Mike Mignola and his longtime collaborators, writers Christopher Golden and Thomas Sniegoski and artist Peter Bergting are teaming up to continue their fan-favorite story of Frankenstein: New World in a new four-issue limited series.
Written by Mignola, Golden, and Sniegoski with art from Bergting, colors by Michelle Madsen, and letters from Clem Robins, Frankenstein: New World – The Sea of Forever is a thrilling new chapter in the Hellboy Universe.
Since he first appeared in Mike Mignola and Richard Corben’s 2011 Hellboy: House of the Living Dead, the legendary monster Frankenstein has been an important figure in the Hellboy Universe. After the world ended, he even took it upon himself to help the last humans learn to survive in Hollow Earth before sleeping for one thousand years.
In 2022’s Frankenstein: New World a young girl named Lilja woke Frankenstein from his slumber for an epic quest to the surface world. Now, in Frankenstein: New World – The Sea of Forever, Lilja and Frankenstein continue to navigate the treacherous surface world, stalked by an ancient and familiar evil.
Co-writer Christopher Golden said in a press release:
“I am ridiculously excited about this series! Hellboy’s world may be over, but its echoes ripple through the New World, as you’ll discover in The Sea of Forever. There’s room for so many unique stories in this series. At the same time, Frankenstein and Lilja’s journey has a destination, and we can’t wait to bring you there!”
