I am holding out as I love absurd and goofy worlds and I'm sure it will take time to get to know the characters and feel invested, but so far it has felt like dragged out monster-of-the-week filler stories with side characters that get more attention than the loosely developed main cast. Don't get me wrong, I love a good monster-of-the-week format but I need a bit more to latch onto than this. 

I started becoming more invested towards the end of this volume, though, so I'm remaining optimistic.
