I picked this up from my library because it was giving me Roman Dirge's Lenore meets Emily the Strange with a dash of Lydia Deetz by way of manga vibes, but unfortunately, I think my enjoyment of Creepy Cat suffered from having those preconceived comparisons. Reading the GoodReads page for it and some other reviews now, I can see that Creepy Cat was never trying to be what I went into it expecting, so not the book's fault, and I can definitely see how it would be a good time for others.
I liked the comic strip structure and it had a couple beautiful panels, but while there were a few vignettes that were enjoyably creepy, most of them were just silly.
It introduced the most compelling premise in for the last few pages, which felt like a waste to me. I understand that it's only Volume 1, so I hope the next volumes focus on pulling at that thread.
Add in a bumbling pest of an “nice guy” admirer, and inconsistent reading directions, ultimately it wasn't bad but wasn't for me.
