I think what really aids my enjoyment of this volume, aside from the addition of Jesus, is that it's mostly a winter volume, which we haven't seen since Volume 2, and since we don't really see the winter in the show, it's a nice change of pace again. It allows the dead to take a backseat to the story, and for the story to focus on actual survival. Food, shelter, rebuilding Alexandria, scavenging, etc. It's a nice actual calm before a future storm.
