Agent
Franks of the Monster Control Bureau, a Frankenstein monster built by
the alchemist Johann Dippel, battles a cult trying to raise an Old
One off the coast of California. Some of the cultists are Deep One
hybrids. There is a reference to shoggoths. Special Task Force
Unicorn has access to a werewolf disabling poison made from a rare
plant that only blooms on out of the way mountains under a full moon. Johann
Dippel is an historic figure who has been identified as an ancestor
of the Frankenstein family in several sources. The Old Ones, the Deep
Ones, and the Shoggoths are from the works of H. P. Lovecraft. The
rare plant is the Mariphasa plant from the movie Werewolf
of London.
