* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: The werewolves that show up to herald the end of humanity are initially fairly standard lycantropes for the most part, turning at the sight of the full moon into bestial predators and [[TheVirus spreading their infection through bites]].

''Age of the Wolf'' is a ComicBook/TwoThousandAD comic.

One day the apocalypse begins when much of humanity is turned into werewolves, who proceed to kill other humans or turn them into more of themselves. Rowan Morrigan, the last descendant of an ancient bloodline of witches, will play a major part in the fate of the world.

* AndThenJohnWasAZombie: Rowan Morrigan, a redheaded witch, uses a rune sigil to keep herself (and several others) from being turned into a werewolf as a result of a wolf bite. When the sigil is finally broken when Rowan is an old woman, she eventually turns but is still able to maintain her sanity.
* EyepatchOfPower:
** One of the female leaders of a Neo-Nazi post-apocalyptic gang is wearing a black eyepatch after half her face was burned in a fight against Rowan.
