In "Frankenstein," the creature's physical appearance is ironic because, despite being crafted from human parts and possessing a human intellect and emotions, he is grotesque and repulsive to those who see him. This outward ugliness leads to immediate rejection and fear, overshadowing his capacity for love and compassion. The irony lies in the contrast between his inner humanity and the horrifying exterior that prevents him from forming meaningful connections with others. Ultimately, his appearance becomes a barrier to acceptance, highlighting the theme of superficial judgment.
Holden always comments on how much he hates people who are 'phoney' and worrying about ones appearance is something that he would call phoney so when he does this himself it is ironic.
Frankenstein refers to Justine's trial as a "wretched mockery of justice" because it is evident to him that she is innocent of the murder of William, yet the evidence against her is fabricated and circumstantial, leading to her wrongful conviction. The irony lies in Frankenstein's belief that Justine is guilty of the crime, as he himself is the true murderer, having created the creature that committed the act. His inability to confess his own guilt while witnessing Justine's suffering highlights his moral failure and the tragic consequences of his actions.

Brently Madden's appearance is ironic because he was reported dead in a train accident by his wife, Mrs. Mallard. However, he unexpectedly returns home, oblivious to the news of his supposed death.

It is ironic because Piggy is often treated as an immature and vulnerable character by the other boys on the island due to his physical appearance and lack of authority.

He is amazed by how lifelike she looks, almost as if she were alive. (And of course she is but he doesn't know it)
The speaker's description of being the darker brother is ironic because it highlights the inequalities and discrimination faced by African Americans based on their skin color, despite all people being equal. In this context, "darker" refers to the difference in skin color that leads to social injustices and marginalization, rather than simply describing physical appearance.
No (that was ironic).
Lennie's full name is Lennie Small, which is ironic because Lennie is neither physically nor mentally small. He is actually a large, strong man with limited cognitive abilities. This irony emphasizes the difference between his physical appearance and his cognitive capabilities.

The lovely Elizabeth, adopted by the Frankenstein family, contracted Scarlet Fever. Though Mrs. Frankenstein was made aware of the possible danger to her own health, "when she heard that her favourite was menaced," she continued to care for Elizabeth. Thus she contracted the Scarlet Fever and died while Elizabeth lived and went on to marry Victor only to be killed by the monster later in the novel. You could also say that since Victor's creator died, he- as the creator of the monster- must also die.
