Now a Netflix Original Series! Acclaimed suspense novelist and New York Times-bestselling author Joe Hill concludes his Eisner-winning story of dark fantasy and wonder in this climactic graphic novel. It took two lifetimes and countless victims, but Lucas "Dodge" Caravaggio has his terrible prize at last: the key which will open the Black Door. Disguised in the form of little Bode Locke, Dodge descends into the Drowning Cave, to throw back the door and release the demons on the other side. Those who have stood against him for so long—Tyler, Kinsey, Scot, Nina, Rufus, and all the rest—take their places as the final tragedy unfolds... a confrontation between decency and hate in the caverns a hundred feet beneath Keyhouse, at the threshold of an evil kept for generations under lock and key.

To put it bluntly, Locke & Key was perfect from beginning to end and is one of the best things I've ever read. It was scary as hell, but when all is said and done I am left thinking fondly of my friends, family, and loved ones. I have seen and agree with the comparison of reading this to watching Lost, yet Locke & Key was so much more satisfying in the end. To say any more would ruin the fun. Unforgettable.
Story
I had the fortune of reading the entire series over the course of one weekend rather than months/years. I really enjoyed the end a lot. I was reluctant to give it 5 stars, but I really was just so sucked in by this point and emotionally invested in these characters that I just had to know how it all came out, dreading what the results would be.
They made me laugh once or twice between all the cringing and sobbing. I don't want to say how it ends of course but I will it left off in such a way that I'm satisfied and not left with lingering questions.
Artwork
There is really little to say here that hasn't been said in my previous reviews. The artwork is great. It compliments the story This story wouldn't be what it was without it, just as the artwork wouldn't be what it is without the text.
The whole series was great with a fantastic set of characters. Images are beautiful and content so interesting. If you haven't already and you enjoy graphic novels, give it a shot.
