An adorably creepy graphic novel from the creator of Sarah's Scribbles. A vampire and a werewolf fall into an unlikely--but somehow perfect--relationship and fall in love over full moons, wine glasses of blood, and differing day-night cycles. Cute and creepy and funny and just the sort of fun you want from comics about a supernatural relationship. Great, lighthearted fun!

Adorable, funny and cute comic that follows Elise the vampire and Jimmy the werewolf as they start dating.

I knew about FANGS already from it being on Tapas. However, I liked reading it as one comic a lot better than the short strips on their own. They are still funny one-by-one, but sequentially they form a lovely story, following Jimmy and Elise from first dates to steady relationship to moving in together.

The romance between the two is lovely. The situational comedy around werewolves and vampires living in modern times, as well as together, was spot on and made me laugh a lot.
The drawing style is simple but effective and perfect for the jokes and situations it depicts.

More like a 4.4 out of 5 stars. I enjoyed it, very quick read.
Elsie is a Vampire who has lived her whole life (over three hundred years) without love until she meets Jimmy who is a Werewolf and they fall accidentally into this relationship that allows them to be themselves without reservation. This a collection of short snippets into their relationship, a humor-filled package that had me laughing so hard at the little ripples of sweetness and acceptance they shared.
Their difference was the center of their relationship and I just loved it. I would be checking out more of Sarah's works.

I loved this, it’s hilarious and touching in equal measure. A beautiful story of a vampire and a werewolf who fall in love, and the reality that entails. The drawings themselves are beautiful, and I love the cover too. I can’t really say much more without giving away too much of the story. I definitely recommend it to anyone who likes vampires, werewolves or quirky love stories.

I was given a free copy of this book. My opinions are my own.

This is a bite-sized (pun intended) review about a bite-sized graphic novel.

You have probably seen the amazing posts of @sarahandersencomics and to most of us on Instagram she needs no introduction.


Fangs is her latest graphic novel where a vampire and a werewolf falls in love. I haven’t read such a cute love story in a long time. From snuggles, to little fights, to bonding over not being ‘normal’, Jimmy and Elsie are like any other couple in love but they are much more adorable. The art isn’t in colour but it is pretty nonetheless with the light and shadow beautifully done. I loved it so much! (With the past few days being so hectic, I needed this.)


If you are a fan of cute graphic novels and Sarah’s Scribbles, this is a must!
Thank you Netgalley for the E-ARC.

4 out of 5 stars! This will make you go ‘aww’ and make your day a bit brighter!

I loved this

Thank you to the publisher for giving me a free copy in exchange for an honest review.

I thought this was so cute! I loved how the vampire and werewolf were together. I thought it was so fun to see their relationship blossom. I think this is such a cute and quick read and I would definitely recommend this one to friends.

While not an active follower, I've always loved Sarah's work and Fangs was no different.
The book is a collection of short comics about a couple - a vampire and werewolf, going through their quite quirky and unique life. It's lovable, hilarious, and surprisingly relatable, especially, given the species difference between us humans and the supernatural creatures of the night.

I've read before the other cartoons that the author share through her social media and I love her sense of humor and this graphic novel is not the exception.
It's catchy, super cute and funny.
We can see the interaction between a vampire and a werewolf; their first met and the way they know about each other through their normal and funny life. Both are hilarious and they complement each other perfectly. I loved this novel so much that when I finished I needed more.

I read the other cartoons of the author and they seemed super cute, adorable and fun but this new humor that she showed in "Fangs" enchanted me as you don't have an idea~.

Elsie's story focuses on how a vampire as dramatic and cool as she lives her day to day with the fierce but adorable Jimmy, who in turn is a werewolf.

This story will fill you with laughter and joy, guaranteed! Elsie is extremely sarcastic and special, the kind of weird girl who just makes your day simple and fun. And Jimmy ... Oh, Jimmy is ADORABLE! Her wolfish behaviors will get you more than a smile, you are seriously going to love him!

Although the graphic novel showed curious LITTLE moments in the life of these two wonderful characters (and although I would have liked there to be more bullets or more of them), the truth is that I LOVED with all my heart the story, the drawings, the characters and the dialogues!
Normally I don't tell dialogues a lot but Sarah managed to put a touch of irony and sarcasm on Elsie and Jimmy and the truth is I can't ignore how wonderful that was~.

I seriously recommend it too much, hopefully I will follow the story in another tome because Elsie and Jimmy stole my heart.

This review is also on GoodReads in spanish and english.

Unlike her previous works, I really loved this book. To me, it was way better because it has a better art style and it’s about the romance between a vampire and a werewolf in the XXI century. Jimmy and Elsie are complete opposites but they understand each other because they’re creatures of the night. Ultimately, they do not hide their primal instincts around each other, and more often than not they share cute, adorable and whole-some moments that made me smile like an idiot from the very beginning.

This book was a light-hearted reading that shows the perks of being in a relationship with someone that is good to you, that complements your personality and who accepts you for who you are.

"Dogs can be leashed. But a wolf chooses to stay."

If you’re already familiar with Andersen’s comics, you know she has just the right amount of humor and fluff in every page. And of course, as a vampire lover, I must add that I loved Elsie’s clothes and personality! On the other hand, Jimmy was such an easy-going guy that I can understand why she fell in love with him. Both of them are adorable and I’m sure you’ll enjoy this graphic novel if you have the chance to read it!

Cute, funny and dark. Lots of cliche'd vamp and werewolf stereotypes make the basis for the funny panels describing the relationship between Jimmy and Elsie. Graphics are well drawn and dark but at times extremely beautiful. Page 86 is my favorite, it made me laugh out loud! Also really loved 98. I definitely want to see more of these two.

Full of Sarah Andersen's wit and humour, this book is just perfection. Perfectly blending real relationship tropes with the supernatural is a simple stroke of genius which will have me coming back again and again.

I adore the odd couple romance. The amazing puns! The simply perfect artistry of the black ink. This is an addicting laugh out load page turner.

With Fangs comic artist Sarah Andersen ventures into 'fantasy' territory. Similarly to her Sarah's Scribbles comics, Fangs consists in a series of vignettes depicting everyday situations...except that in this case the couple starring in these scenes is not so ordinary. She's a three-hundred-years old vampire and he's a werewolf: puns ensue.
Many of the jokes allude to existing tropes/media about vampires&werewolves. So we have a lot of vignettes about blood, dogs, death, coffins, etc. Some of these were genuinely funny, some were a bit silly, and others were just cute.
The simple artwork fits perfectly with this sort of structure and humour. Fangs is a very wholesome and lighthearted read. While it may not be particularly memorable or 'substantial' it's bound to make you smile.

A vampire and a werewolf meet and fall in love. I really liked their relationship, even though in many books, such as twilight, werewolves and vampires hate each other. I loved the puns and especially the joke about twilight. It was fun to read. The only issue I had was that there was very little development, which I can understand being a short graphic novel. Overall, it was entertaining.

This was a short and sweet graphic novel about the relationship between a vampire and a werewolf. I believe the artist has shared snippets of this online before, because I had seen some of the artwork.

This was so quick for me to read, but just because it’s short doesn’t make it a bad thing! The relationship between the vampire and the werewolf was so cute, and even though they were both “monsters,” they worked so well together as a couple. This was filled with cuteness and so much humor, and I loved how the artist portrayed a relationship between two opposite people,

Do you like cute couples? Vampires? Werewolves? HORRIBLE PUNS? Well then "Fangs" is for you!

Sarah Andersen, of "Sarah's Scribbles" fame, has created another wonderful masterpiece in the form of "Fangs", which is a series of short comics and art about a vampire and a werewolf who are very much in love with each other. Elise and Jimmy are super adorable, and neither back down from a pun opportunity at the other's (and their own) expense.

Sort of a "My Giant Nerd Boyfriend", Goth Edition, "Fangs" is funny, heartfelt, swoony, and all around perfect for putting a smile on your face!
