“…Satan had his companions… but I am solitary and abhorred…” (Shelley 139)
Satan is believed to be the personification of evil and the enemy of God and also commands a force of evil angels most commonly known as demons. His followers are faithful and each day he continues to obtain more. Frankenstein’s monster has no one, no one to follow and no one to follow him, he has nothing, and he doesn’t even have his own creator to look to. Shelley is trying to make it clear how devastatingly lonesome he truly is, he is so alone that even arguably one of the most hated beings on earth has more companions than him.
