Side note: Prometheus was a titan (in Ancient Greek mythology, the predecessors of the gods), not a god. Also, he not only gave humans fire, he also taught them to read, hunt and heal, and in some versions, created them in the first place (as Frankenstein created a human, and Promestein attempts to create Humanity 2.0). He was punished for giving Knowledge to humans, too.

Last but not least, the subtitle of the Book "Frankenstein" is "The Modern Prometheus", so the two have been linked from the very beginning.

So, no, I never wondered about it. I thought it was obvious.
