- "Zorro. Nemo. Odysseus. You know their stories, but you've never seen them like this before. My Name Was Never Frankenstein: And Other Classic Adventure Tales Reanimated brings back to life your favorite characters in new and exciting escapades. In this inventive collection, a stellar cast of writers use classic adventure tales as a jumping-off point for an original, and often magical, journey. The eclectic mix of tales features prequels, alternate universes, spin-offs, and total reboots for a captivating quest. Ahab is shipwrecked on an island of cannibals. Mr. Hyde tells his side of the story. The scarecrow from Oz struggles with the mystery of his existence, and many more.
