The story of Frankenstein is a conflict between a creator and his humanoid, which reveals posthuman issues. Posthuman can be understood in various ways. Some say it is beyond human while some say it is a superhuman. However, critical posthumanists say it is what we are or will be. Critical posthumanists like Katherine Hayles, Rosi Braidotti and Cary Wolfe think posthuman includes humans, animals, artificial intelligence, and superhumans. We are all posthumans as living individuals because the border between human and machine has been bridged with prosthetics, artificial organs and artificial intelligences. The hybridity is a characteristic of posthuman, which can be easily seen in Frankenstein. Victor Frankenstein as well as his creature shows this hybridity. His creature looks like a human while Victor shows similarities to his creature.
