History Main / FrankenX

* ''ComicBook/RequiemChevalierVampire'' has a MadScientist stitching together a creature that can take on Dracula. Then he's given an EvilGenius' brain, to (sigh) "turn his monster into a veritable frank-Einstein!"

* ''Series/{{Beetleborgs}}'': [[JustForPun Frankenbeans]], the resident Frankenstein-analogue of Hillhurst Mansion's MonsterMash.

Some blame the creators of the work for not realizing that {{Frankenstein|sMonster}} is [[IAmNotShazam the name of the creator/scientist who created the monster]], said monster's not having a name (but saying once "I ought to be thy Adam")[[note]]Though since he was created by Frankenstein and therefore his descendant, it does sort of make sense to call him Frankenstein[[/note]]. Others see "FrankenX" as meaning X combined in a manner like that used by Frankenstein. See DrFakenstein for when "Franken-X" and "X-stein" are accurately used to refer to the scientist instead of the creature.
