Evie Wyld and Joe Sumner make a great writer/artist team. Her vivid, sensory language is more literary and precise than the average graphic memoir; and his adaptable, expressive art style - thin figures with exaggerated facial features and heavy shadow - seems influenced by the French, like David B. First page amused me, as Evie recalls sounds of her childhood before images. Isn't the comic the chosen medium here? ha

"I want to be on the side of the things in the sea." What surprised me most about EVERYTHING IS TEETH is its eventual vegan advocacy. I don't know if Wyld is a vegetarian/vegan, but the language in her memoir (a bull shark's babies are referred to as "puppies") meshed with Sumner's tender artwork lend that impression. Battles waged against Nature by men like Vic Hislop (a true SOUTH PARK character) are depressing.
