If not for the Flashpoint banner and modern-looking art, you'd have trouble convincing me this book came out in 2011 and not 1978. It's a pitch-perfect Bronze Age horror comic. You've got:
1) a team of classic Universal Studios-style monsters;
2) gunfights with Nazis;
3) pulpy dialogue ("Be warned ... my vengeance did not fall lightly on his head!");
4) cameos by Man-Bat (!) and G.I. Robot (!!!); and
5) a fast-moving plot strung together by flimsy coincidence. (Really? Soldiers just happened to find Frankenstein in the Arctic and he just happened to immediately know the Nazis were bad guys?)
One thing this issue doesn't have is a conspicuous tie-in to the main Flashpoint story, and that suits me fine. If you edited out the handful of Flashpoint references, this could have worked just as well as a first issue for the post-reboot Frankenstein title that was just announced. Maybe this will tie in more directly to Flashpoint later, but for now it's just a fun diversion in the alternate universe.
And if it didn't have you at Frankenstein killing Hitler with a sword, then you, sir or madam, are the real monster here.
