Synopsis
Frankenstein's Monster has been found frozen in ice. The ice melts, the monster awakens and he battles the X-Men. The monster prevails but the X-Men come back for round two! The monster explodes after Iceman sheathes it in ice. It turns out that the monster was an android created by an alien race who was meant to be an ambassador of peace. The android malfunctioned and became a menace. The pursuing aliens left its body in an icy tomb. It attacked the X-Men because of their colorful costumes. Xavier muses - "We'll never know how Mary Shelley learned any of this - but perhaps it's just as well!"
