Anti-Frankenstein Equation
The Anti-Frankenstein Equation

Original Commentary

Did you ever come up with something so awesome you had to use it? That's why it's called the Anti-Frankenstein Equation. The name "Tertanium" is lifted from Radio Free Vestibule's "Something's Wrong with Gilligan's Island". I was very tempted to rename him to something even more obscure. I didn't because the alternatives were worse. I've been meaning to work a Robyn Hitchcock reference in for a while so he was almost Dr. Sticky. Except that sounds even wronger as a wrestler. And yes, the vampire is part of the A-FE - Terrence

Modern Commentary
"The Anti-Frankenstein Equation" is one of those names that just amused me. There's no story. There's no explanation. I just personally think it's hilarious and will use it any chance I get. Which isn't often, since the comic isn't about wrestlers.

They did show up in Nicole and Derek a few years later, though.

Did they form to fight a Frankenstein? Maybe. If they did, that was years ago and the guy isn't a Frankenstein any more, but the team name stuck. - Terrence
