'Creature Commandos' Episode 2 reveals that Victor Frankenstein created The Bride in 1831, but it wasn’t his idea. His first monster, Eric, convinced him to do it. Eric hoped The Bride would love him, but things didn’t go as planned. She was terrified of Eric and fell in love with Victor instead.

Heartbroken and angry, Eric decided to kill Victor, thinking it would clear the way for The Bride to love him. But his plan backfired. Instead of love, he earned her hatred. This story sticks closely to the comics, where The Bride also rejects Eric. It’s a reminder that you can’t force love, and sometimes, rejection hurts so much it changes everything. This emotional twist adds a lot of depth to 'Creature Commandos' and keeps fans hooked.
