Mad House / Madhouse / Madhouse Comics #99
In "Francistein," a mad scientist's experiment takes a delightfully subversive turn when his creation, meant to punish male chauvinists, develops a taste for fashion and romance instead. Written with wry humor and brought to life by Stan Goldberg’s expressive art and Bill Yoshida’s crisp lettering, this 1975 issue from Madhouse Comics #99 offers a campy, clever twist on classic monster tropes. The cover, also by Stan Goldberg, captures the absurdity perfectly.

Rejected by the schools of mad medicine, Dr. Francistein creates a monster to "wreak havoc on male chauvinist pigs," but the monster is more interested in wearing clothes and dating men than fighting for women's lib.
