I'm surprised when comic books are good these days. I'm even surprised when there are actual people instead of characters in comic books, and there's a feeling of story and purpose that goes on between episodes.

So Locke and Key is surprising from where it starts; with children dealing with the loss of their father. With how they interact with their friends and school after having faced a loss like that. And the things that accumulate around Keyhouse, the ancient family house that they move back to, makes it more slow and creepy than shocking.

I really like it. I'm probably going to pick up some more.
