Fangs is a collection of comics about the relationship between a werewolf and a vampire. Each comic is a few panels long and the entire comic can be read in one sitting.
Elsie met Jimmy in a bar. They are just like any couple, except… Elsie is a vampire and Jimmy is a werewolf. Even with their differences, such as Elsie’s aversion to sunlight and Jimmy’s allergy to silver, they are perfect for each other.
Fangs is a really cute collection of comics, and I would recommend it to those who are looking for a light read.

This was such an adorably cute comic about a relationship between a vampire and a werewolf – how wonderful unique their relationship would be; from meet cute, first dates, to the talk about ex’s; the understanding and revelations of the quirks unique to them, to falling in love, moving in together and finally contemplating marriage.

Every single comic was as normal as you can get; but was also quirky, unique and absolutely adorable! Definitely and highly recommended, especially if you need a little pick me up!

Thanks to NetGalley, I managed to get a PDF copy to review.

This is a very sweet and adorable collection of comics depicting the relationship between Elsie and Jimmy, who are a vampire and a werewolf.

It’s a very well done collection of slice of life comics, threaded with cute, relatable interactions and a good dose of humour.

All in all it has a high chance of re-readability and is just overall a very lovely and sweet collection of comics.

An adorable comic strip turned to a beautiful book. A love story between a vampire and a werewolf. It' s swoon-worthy!

I really enjoyed reading this comic, it was great to see the comics collected in one volume. Sarah Andersen has a great art style and I loved her characters.

What happens when a werewolf and vampire fall in love ? This comic is what happens.
It is a Sarah Andersen spin on their relationship about their quirky everyday life

This is a simply presented graphic novel, with large illustrations - usually a max of four panels per page, that reads a bit like a weekly vampire/werewolf gag reel. Each mythical being's attributes and weaknesses are ticked off and given a joke, all under the guise of a Romeo & Juliet relationship between a vampire and a werewolf. For example, you have Wolf Boy throwing open the curtains in the morning, then profusely apologising to the Vampire Girl who gets burned by the sun. Or him trying to prove to his friend that he has a girlfriend, but the phone selfie doesn't work out because she is invisible to cameras.

The tone is quite adult and erotic in nature, with jokes about killing and sex. It's also kind of poignant, as you come to realise these two mythical beings share the experience of being removed from humanity yet wanting a very human thing - love and connection.

Overall, the jokes aren't laugh out loud, and some of them are quite sad, such as Wolf Boy being burned by the silver ring on Vampire Girl's hand as they touch. There are also many that are of "Dad joke" quality, but I think this is deliberate and the novel is never anything less than easily readable.

“Do you ever feel different?”

“At least once a month I don’t even feel human.”


Fangs by Sarah Andersen is a graphic novel about the blooming love between a vampire and a werewolf - and exactly what your heart needs right now.

Elsie is a vampire and Jimmy is a werewolf. They meet at a bar and fall into a romantic relationship that is not only supernatural, it will warm your undead heart with dark humor.

Things that worked for me:
- I enjoyed the mundane aspects of the relationship between Elsie and Jimmy. This is really where love grows and made this “monstrous” story feel more “human”.
- Laughing at the genuine interactions in the relationship, cheesy but heartwarming puns, and characterization of the two characters.
- Framing the graphic novel with vignettes of daily interactions. The plot, however, did feel cohesive despite jumping around in an unknown timeline. There is not a traditional story arc - no definitive exposition, climax, and resolution - but the focus of the narrative in the “small stuff” is perfect.

Things that didn’t:
- I would have loved to read more about Elsie and Jimmy, I really didn’t want this graphic novel to end. This piece is quite short.

Thank you to Andrews McMeel Publishing, Sarah Andersen, and NetGalley for this e-arc. I enjoyed every moment of my reading experience.

Delightful! Read it once and had to immediately read it again to make sure I did not miss anything. I want more of this and more from this author. It is fun to watch quirky romance develop no matter who it is but this vampire/werewolf combo is cute, touching, and just made me smile.

I absolutely adore Sarah Anderson's comics, and I'd seen some of her "Fangs" comics floating around on the internet. I'm so glad that they're going to be all in one spot, because they are a treat!

"fangs" is a graphic novel about the relationship between Elsie, a vampire, and Jimmy, a werewolf. The art is BEAUTIFUL, and I love the various little details in every comic. I stared at some of the illustrations for a while just admiring them. This is more a slice of life showing the daily lives of Elsie and Jimmy, but it's creative and touching. My only complaint is I just wish it had been a little bit longer because I didn't want it to end.

So so good. Sweet and awkward and funny with monsters. Love it.

Wow am I glad I picked this one up! I went into this not knowing much about it except it featured a vampire, but little did I know that Elsie was the cutest vampire ever - let alone her adorable werewolf boyfriend, Jimmy! I sat physically giggling through the pages and loved the constant jokes and puns. Beautifully gothic, dark, and witty humour that I'd love to see more of - bloody brilliant.

My first Anderson comic and it was adorably cute!
Fun, quirky, sarcastic and spooky at the same time <3
wish it were longer!

Loved it so much!!!!

This was cute! Not so much an overarching plot but cute comic moments between the characters. A lot of fun moments using cliches of vampires and werewolves. The drawing style was really well done.

The love story between a vampire and a werewolf. Opposites attract.
So funny! I've enjoyed it immensely.

As a fan of Sarah’s Scribbles and a lover of vampire/werewolf romance, this sweet and funny book of comic drawings hit the nail on the head. Anderson’s characterization of the werewolf as a 90s Seattle grunge guy and the vampire as the cute goth girl from any high school may seem like stereotypes, but they work well to create a perfectly odd couple who relish each other’s idiosyncrasies.

This was a fun take on romantic/relationship comics, with added supernatural horror and eating people. It was funny, sweet and not at all cheesy. It was more a series of individual comics than a graphic novel so lacked some continuity, but I really enjoyed this glimpse into the vampire/werewolf couple's life together.

Fangs is a graphic novel that revolves around an everyday not so “usual” relationship between Elsie, a vampire and Jimmy, a werewolf.

I absolutely loved this graphic novel from beginning to end. There were multiple times I laughed out loud and finally my husband was so curious that we ended up reading it together. The humor throughout was right up my alley. It was such a fun read and I would definitely recommend it!

I want to thank NetGalley, the author and publisher for the e-ARC of this graphic novel. Opinions expressed in this review are honest, my own and left voluntarily.

I loved this! I've been following the webcomic very casually and always loved it when it popped up on my radar. This collection was so fun, and I loved seeing all of them together. I had read some of them before, but that didn't detract from my enjoyment of it at all. I'll happily read more of these when they're out!

Have been a fan of Andersen's for a while and was really cool to see a different side of her illustration in this collection. Very funny and sweet snippets. If i could get my hands on prints of some of these pages I would decorate my wall with them in a heartbeat haha, loved it!
