Read Series: Locke & Key

by Author Joe Hill

Book

Die Schattenkrone (2010)

I love everything Joe Hill does, and this graphic novel series is amazing. I'm constantly in awe of Gabriel Rodriguez's artwork. It's so detailed and technically perfect, even when handling surreal/supernatural elements like spirits and shadows. This series is epic, full of wonder and horror, and...

La Couronne des Ombres (2010)

I read this in about an hour on a plane. This series is pretty consistently amazing. It's creative and I care about the characters and it has elements of horror writing that I've loved since I was 14 without the horror/supernatural aspects becoming annoyingly intrusive. I know, as a text-based...

Crown of Shadows (2000)

I love this series. Everything about it is awesome: the characters, the history, the keys, the art. Excellent new additions to the key collection. We know who made the keys and why, but hoping to find out more about this 'iron that is not iron' and who Crais is. Also, WTF is that multi-eyed thing...

Rouages (2013)

The Locke family drama/horror continues. Tyler and Kinsey find a new key that allows them to travel back in time. They can't change any past events because they are insubstantial there, but they can observe and learn more about the keys, their ancestors, and what's in the caves under the house. T...

Uhrwerke (2012)

So many things are revealed in this volume dealing with major back story behind the house. The characters we have been seeing now and then are now tied to the story and we finally come to know the origin of the keys and Mr. Locke's role in it. All references - people, photographs, anecdotes are a...

Locke & Key, Volume 6: Alpha & Omega (2014)

5/5And so it ends.This comic has been one of the most interesting, imaginative, and beautiful books on the stands. I put it right up there with Saga among the best comics out there that I would recommend to anyone. It deserves the Eisner award it won.And I'm not going to lie: I got choked up read...

Alpha & Omega (2014)

I did this book a disservice by reading it so long after reading the other volumes. Several of the characters I had forgotten about or lost my investment in. That being said, the vast majority of the characters are developed very well in the collection so that the events manage to have their em...

Locke & Key Vol. 6: Alpha & Omega (2014)

A well drawn, well written graphic novel spanning about 6 volumes, with rich character development right down to the toddler in the family. Locke & Key explores the character flaws, strengths of its cast against the backstory of a magical key (or keys) that can open a portal to an otherworld fill...

Locke & Key, Volume 5: Clockworks (2012)

This one was over too quickly. The art-work in this series is amazing. I'm frequently astounded by how incredibly well the scenes are portrayed. Some of this stuff is really hard to conceptualize visually, but the artist did an exceptional job.In this volume, a large part of the mystery was solve...

Schlüssel zum Königreich (2011)

Everyone should read this series.The first three volumes were terrific, but this one just blew me away. The different art styles were a great touch. This volume had the right mix of drama, suspense, humor, and action. Joe Hill is a master at his craft. If any of his other stuff are half as good a...

Les Clés du Royaume (2011)

Dieser 4 Band der Reihe war bisher leider am schlechtesten für mich. Die Zeichnungen waren teilweise sehr wirr und auch die Story war sehr sprunghaft so dass ich nicht wirklich in die eigentliche Story hineinfand und die Geschehnisse viel zu schnell abliefen.Zum Ende hin ging es dann wieder etwas...

Locke & Key, Vol. 4: Keys to the Kingdom (2011)

The fourth installment of Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez's Locke and Key series takes creative storytelling to another level. Highlights include a chapter illustrated by Calvin and Hobbes's artist Bill Watterson, a chapter entitled "February" organized by days, a touchingly eerie chapter entitled...

Locke and Key Vol. 4: Keys to the Kingdom (2011)

Joe Hill se luce en este volumen y hace cosas increibles con el medio. Desde el tributo a Bill Waterson en el primer número (Sparrows) hasta el estilo de narración alternativo que nos cuenta todo un mes en el tercer número (February).El hecho de haber puesto este número, que desarrolla la histori...

Locke & Key, Volume 3: Crown of Shadows (2010)

Let me start out and say that Brian K. Vaughan, the creator of Y: The Last Man, wrote the sensational foreword to this volume and described perfectly how I feel about this series. Joe Hill is absolutely brilliant with this series and with his collaboration and the artwork makes it spectacular to ...

Casse-tête (2009)

I’m really enjoying the Locke & Key series. “Head Games” is the second volume in the series which introduce us to another key, the Head Key, which literally unlocks a person mind. I mean the key removes the top part of someone’s head and inside you are able to see their memories and emotions. Whi...

Psychospiele (2009)

Holy fucking shit. Okay, let me compose myself.*deep breaths*I wasn't too stoked on the 'Welcome To Lovecraft' volume, not sure why. Just didn't feel it too much. THIS VOLUME WAS INCREDIBLE. It was dark, and weird, and twisted, and horrifying. Just great.A couple of comments on the art; I think i...

Juegos Mentales (2009)

Loved this one, and I thought the drawings were spectacular, especially when he's showing characters as teenagers and then in their 40s, he was able to illustrate them to add the look of aging while still making it clear that they're the same person. The two-page spreads when the characters would...

Locke & Key, Vol. 2: Head Games (2009)

How does one store memories? How does one perceive reality? Joe Hill expands on this idea that he teased with in the first volume and takes it up a notch. A key to open head and stuff books in it, extract information - fear, memories and stuff them in a glass jar. It's such a unique idea! Its eve...
