His creator. Join writer Eric Jackson and artist Charles Yates as they delve into the psychological horror that is Frankenstein.

So, you think you know the truth about magic? Wicca, Voodoo, Chaos, Tarot...call it what you will...but it is much different than believed. There are fundamental elements at work on our everyday lives so powerful, so dangerous and cosmic, and they threaten to tear the very fabric of reality asunder. But who guards us against this impending onslaught? The Disciples, a misfit group of old and new school seers, magicians, and wielders of the Black Arts whose own internal politics pose as great a threat to their survival as any outside influence. The Disciples are in the front line as their magic can be perceived on two distinct levels - in the human world they can effect change, control probability, perform conjuring tricks, etc. - but in the astral plane, the ether of magic, they can be very powerful weapons. And they are the only ones with this ability. And the Knights Templar want it in order to ressurect a god and dominate this world. "e;Smart, sharp, and dynamic. The Disciples is one of the most impressive debuts I've seen in a long time."e; - Katherine Keller, Sequential Tart. "e;I'm really impressed with the total package of The Disciples. This is really a promising debut to a series and if they keep this up, I think this may be one of the next big, talked about series."e; - Greg McElhatton, iComics. Collects issues 1-4.
