Christopher discovers the history of Monsterkind, and through that learns that he isn’t so alone in the world after all. That what he’s experienced all his life is what many before him have also experienced. Maybe he’s not going to cower and hide anymore.  Maybe he needs to fight back! Not only for himself and his friends, but for all those who came before them and lost their lives.

Comics creator Soo Lee takes the reins of art duties in this brand-new two-part character arc that takes a look back at the perfectly monstrous life of the heroic Adam Frankenstein as he finally decides to pen his life story in this somewhat unofficial adaptation of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, but with a very Christopher Chaos take.

Six months have passed since the battle in the Monster Underground, and Christopher has never been happier. He’s finally embracing his inner mad scientist, building new inventions every day, and maybe even starting a Monster Club with Jordi and Viv?! But when two new students arrive at school and old foes refuse to die, Christopher’s newfound bliss may end as soon as it began . . .

Christopher desperately searches for answers about himself and how he can help all of Monsterkind. But Adam Frankenstein, Viv, and Jordi are concerned—and struggling in their own ways. Will Christopher push himself too far and destroy the friendships forged by the Monster Squad?

Christopher picks up the pieces after his experiment has gone awry but are his friends in the Monster Club available to help him? And who are the mysterious twins that have shown up in school preoccupied with Christopher? Are Sasha and Luka new friends or terrible foes?

Christopher is pushing himself and his powers further than he ever has before! Will he be able to help monsterkind as he breaks these barriers or will he further alienate his friends in the Monster Club? And how will his mother feel after explicitly forbidding these experiments?

The second story arc crescendos as our entire cast returns to the Underground where the Monster Club shares the buried history with the twins. Elsewhere, two enemies converge on Adam Frankenstein with terrible and very deadly results!
