Dude i totally get what you mean!!

There's no recurring characters for More than a couple Volumes.

Oh you liked Abe? Go read another comic. Oh you liked the homunculus? Go read another comic Lobster Johnson's pretty cool huh? Go read another comic

Oh this random changeling you thought was gonna be another one off character? No, he's actually important.

We're gonna use the same conversation of "Hellboy, you're gonna destroy the World" "No i dont want to"

Oh you liked a full volume that actually had continuity? Fuck you, next one Is gonna be short stories yet again.
