Quick note -- I say "It's complicated" to the characters being likeable and the flaws being a focus because 1) we're so early on and there's so little there to really say for certain and 2) the Universal Monsters movie bastardizes the text and the characters SO BAD. In the 1933 movie, which this is clearly the source material for and not the original novel, Victor is stripped of all complexity (and his name?) and gets whittled down until all that's left is a caricature of a mad scientist. 

But that's the movie, not the fault of this particular comic. 

I'm excited to read the rest of these!!! I love the art style and I appreciate that they're not just adapting the original novel or the 1933 film and they're adding something to it. I just hope they don't completely mess up the story and it's meaning like the film did :,(
