Frankenstein's Monster

Creature - Zombie 0/1, XBB (2)
As Frankenstein's Monster comes into play, remove X creature cards in your graveyard from the game. If you can't, put Frankenstein's Monster into its owner's graveyard instead of into play. For each creature card removed this way, Frankenstein's Monster comes into play with a +2/+0, +1/+1, or +0/+2 counter.¹
