BEACH BUM COMICS : TRAPPED ON -- H.G. WELLS ISLAND OF DR. MOREAU !!!

Wells novel, The Island of Dr. Moreau, presents the narration of Edward Prendick, a shipwrecked man, rescued by a passing boat, left on the island home of Dr. Moreau, who creates human-like beings from animals via vivisection (experimental surgery on a live subject for research.)

These beasts are half animal and half human with Prendick immediately thrown into a struggle for his life as he fights against the master of the beasts, Dr. Moreau. As the line between civility and savagery is blurred, Prendick is forced to rethink his preconceptions about good and evil, right and wrong. The novel deals with a number of philosophical themes, including pain and cruelty, moral responsibility, human identity and human interference with nature.
