If you're one of those people that argue that Stephen King isn't as good as he used to be, start reading his son's comic book, Locke & Key. Joe Hill has created what is the best comic book out there. It has everything. The dialogue, especially the “teen speak,” is hilarious, realistic, and oh-so fun to read. The characters are all three-dimensional and all struggling with real world issues as well as the dark things that well up and burst around Key House. The reason that the best writing is done in this book is that Hill keeps surprising us. Each new issue brings forth more bizarre adventures, more painful and serene emotions, and twists that move the story forward while enveloping it in mystery and awe.
