Ok, this sounds like an odd premise for a graphic novel series, a stitched together girl, crimson, who wakes up with no memory.

From that point, we get to meet a shy werewolf girl, a vain vampire, a bunch of ghosts, and a young witch.

This is a middle school series and has action, adventure and friendship. There is nothing overly scary in the story despite all the main characters being what we normally think of as monsters. A delightful read and of course I am looking forward to the next issue to find out more about Crimson's origin.

It is impossible for me to dislike any book that has a badger/hedgehog crossbred as a character. I just can’t. I want Crust. I want my own Crust now.
Crimson Volania Mulch resembles in appearance Frankenstein’s Bride. Her purple hair stands up straight, and she has a put together/rag doll appearance. But appearance is where that resembles ends, for Crimson is her own rag and bone girl, if she is rag and bone at all, for her past is somewhat mysterious.
But that is not least of the mysteries. She finds herself in Assumption Cemetery, a place inhabited by ghosts, a fish monster by the name of Simon, a werewolf by the name of Wisteria Smials, a vampire by the name of Quinton, and the human Parameter Jones, who is a magician.
And someone keeps leaving her cool presents, like Crust who is a badger/hedgehog with two heads.
This is a cute first volume, and there is much to like. There is the friendship that develops between Crimson and Wisteria, which expands to add Parameter (who is a poc, though Simon is green). The friendship is the best part of the series, for the girls do develop a good friendship without a rivalry, at least so far, for the interest of a boy. The cover, therefore, with Crimson between two boys is slightly misleading.
In fact, Crimson’s reaction to Quinton, who is mockery of some other famous vampires, is so wonderful that it does a body good.
The art is great. It is somewhat like a darker colored I Hate FairyLand crossed with Funko Pop!

This is a great graphic novel for junior readers. Fun, well developed characters and a cool art style.

[3.5 stars]

This was a really cute story. I loved the art, especially. Didn't love the layout, but I got used to it after a while. The characters are all really fun, and I think it's gonna be another great comic about friendship... which happen to be my favorite kinds of comics. I think the art style would appeal to fans of I Hate Fairyland. The story, however, would probably appeal more to fans of Lumberjanes, Giant Days, or My Little Pony.

A fantastic introduction to this funny and monsterish bunch. Amazing artwork adds to the story and leaves you wanting more.
