Frankenstein

Оригінальне ім’я: フランケンシュタイン

Despite his stark appearance, however, Frankenstein is no lumbering simpleton. Instead, he is another of Tezuka’s cadre of mad scientists who is a master of his trade. Often cast in leadership roles, as a scientist, a general, or a respected professor – he usually has a harsh lesson to teach. Frankenstein followed up his first appearance in Men with Tails (1949), with a role in Next World (1951) as a research scientist with his famous name. However, he has also had memorable performances as a virtuoso violinist in Black Jack (1973-83) and a biology professor with an axe to grind in Rainbow Parakeet (1981-82), among several others. Almost as imposing as his famous namesake, Frankenstein is a large hulk of a man, with an extremely long, somewhat monstrous-looking face. (Source: Tezuka In English)
