Cover by Ed Hannigan and Mike Esposito. At some point in high school, Peter Parker probably read Mary Shelley's classic novel "Frankenstein." At no point though did Peter think he might someday team up with Victor Frankenstein's creation! But due to a strange series of events, the Amazing Spider-Man finds himself across the Atlantic Ocean, in the Balkans, and inside the castle of the evil Baron von Shtupf...with only one friend by his side: the Frankenstein monster! It's a literary team up for the ages as the wondrous wall-crawler and the man-monster from the pages of a 19th century novel join forces...to save the world! Cameo appearance by the Man-Wolf. (Notes: Frankenstein previously appeared in Frankenstein Monster 18. This issue includes a 2-page retelling of the origin of Frankenstein's monster.) 32 pages Cover price $0.25.

Cover by Ed Hannigan and John Romita. If things weren't crazy enough inside Baron von Shtupf's castle with the Frankenstein Monster present...now enter the Man-Wolf! Where in the world did he come from? The wall-crawler doesn't have time to ponder that question as the claws and teeth of the Man-Wolf attack! Fortunately though, Victor Frankenstein's creation and the web-slinger are able to drive off John Jameson's ferocious alter-ego and also defeat the baron! However, Spider-Man knows he can't leave the dangerous Man-Wolf to freely roam the Balkan countryside. Will the amazing one be able to find the Man-Wolf in the snowy mountains? Or perhaps the better question...will he live (or not live) to regret it? It's a savage struggle for survival in the snow! (Notes: The Frankenstein Monster appears next in Iron Man 102. The Man-Wolf battles the web-slinger again in Amazing Spider-Man 189.) Cover price $0.25.
