Frankenstein has finally decided what she wants to be when she grows up...a Super Villian! Together with her faithful sidekick, Igor, Frankenstein uses chemical experiments to come up with the perfect villain powers.

Frankenstein and Igor experiment with fire, ice and smoke all in the name of trying to find the coolest villain superpowers. There will be crashes, there will be bangs, there will be many terrible puns!

But in the end is a super villain still Frankenstein’s dream, or does being a scientist sound a little more exciting?
