The Frankenstein Influence Hath struck me

*Listening to The Original Version Of Frankenstein by Edgar White*( I say original because I've been listening to a cover for Frankenstein by Marcus Miller)

Anyway... In listening to Marcus Miller's cover for Edgar White's Frankenstein on my ipod last week, I started thinking about a "Frankenstein" character I developed when I was in the eighth grade based off of Victor Von Gerdenheim from DarkStalkers.

Originally he was alot like Victor, he manipulated electricity that was channeled through his body, and had superhuman strength, but unlike Victor, this character was very articulate when speaking, and he was a villain.(And he had a name, I just can't remember what it was. :P ) However in listening to "frankenstein" on my ipod I started to recall this character he started to become somewhat like the Hulk in these mental scenarios of mine as I thought about the Incredible Hulk and Red Hulk, and in how I also recalled how I learned that the Hulk himself was inspired by Frankenstein.(Of which I just recently learned that the other source of inspiration was Jekyll and Hyde.) And as this new renovation of this old concept came to life in my subconscious, he started to become more of a hero than a villain. And also I seemed to have given him a Hulk like origin that may be mixed with Solomon Grundy's origin in Justice League.

But my problem is the character's recent renovations, and abilities: He's a man resurrected from the dead by a scientists, and transforms into a Muscular Frankenstein looking creature due to the energy used in his resurrection, and he has superhuman strength, and can manipulate electricity and radioactive energy in any manner he sees fix. But he can transform at will rather than just transforming when he's pissed...

Yes I have dreams, and fate seems to place me among others with dreams like mine.

I don't see a problem. On a side note I love it when I get inspired by reading to create stories (which I am assuming just happened to you). In my free time i'm working on a collection of short story manga based on John Steinbeck's Cannery Row and Sweet Thursday .

I was merely influenced by a song.... And as I said their Rivalry is like that of The Hulk, and Abomination's well kind of.... In this story arc, my first concept was created to be a super soldier prototype, and was assigned to guard the son of the scientist who "created him." But after being called a monster, he went on a rampage that resulted in the death of his creator's son. So not wanting to out live his own son, the scientist resurrected his son with a gamma radiation induced electric charge that not only resurrected him, but mutated him into a "Hulk-like" creature. So in short, you have this teenage Franken-Hulk saving people from Demons, his former Frankenstein Guardian, and an agile Cave-man who was thawed out of a block of ice, and underwent cerebral experiments that made in cunning, articulate, and intelligent.

Yes I have dreams, and fate seems to place me among others with dreams like mine.
