Carlton is a young kid who believes everything and falls prey to his brother who torments him by dressing as monsters. Instead of running, like he usually does, Carlton decides to train to be able to fight these monsters. This training comes in handy when the munchies are woken up from the bottom of the ocean after someone throws food into the water.
This story is silly at best. It is hard to identify with the characters - they are all goofy and flat. The pacing of the story is abrupt with some minor parts lasting several pages and other major plot points taking a single page.
