THE WALKING DEAD, Volume 2

So after being hugely impressed by THE WALKING DEAD, Volume 1 (a zombie comic, for those of you who missed my previous post) I picked up Volumes 2 through 6.

I've only read Volume 2 thus far and...........what happened? Okay, obviously they got a new artist who's nowhere near as talented as the first guy (I could barely tell the hero apart from another bearded character) but also the quality of the writing took a major downturn. I'm not gonna say "Whoa, did Volume 2 ever SUCK!!!" but it wasn't anywhere NEAR as good as the first one.

Did I get screwed buying the last five volumes? Does the series improve after a temporary glitch? Am I just insane, and is Volume 2 even better than Volume 1, and the new artist is talented beyond compare, and only a common dullard would have trouble telling apart the hero from the other guy with the beard? What's the deal?
