Cassie
Hack and Vlad team up with Eva, Daughter of the Dragon, and the
vigilantes known as the Ghosts of Old Detroit to rescue Eva’s
companion Michael from Doctor Praetorius and Mary Shelley Lovecraft.
A Gill-Man can be seen among the slashers whose corpses have been
collected by Praetorius and Lovecraft. Eva
is allegedly the daughter of Dracula, though more likely “Dracula”
is a “soul-clone” of the original Vlad Tepes. Similarly, although
Michael is identified as Victor Frankenstein’s monster, the
significant difference in personality between the original monster
and Michael suggests the latter was actually created by another
member of the Frankenstein family. Dr. Praetorius (or Pretorius) is
from the film Bride
of Frankenstein.
It is unknown whether this Gill-Man is the same one that appears in
The
Creature from the Black Lagoon and
its sequels.

I take it that the Ghosts of Old Detroit is original to this miniseries. At least, I could not find anything about them online.
ReplyDeleteYep, they are.
