Benjamin Franklinstein Meets the Fright Brothers

(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Matthew McElligott. The reanimated founding father (Benjamin Franklinstein Lives!), with Victor's help, aims to determine whether he was awakened intentionally. He's also puzzling out the similarly undead Wright brothers' connection with vampire bats terrorizing Philadelphia. Fast-paced, humorous, and just shy of too ridiculous, the series continues to be entertaining while also teaching a tiny bit of real history.
