Locke Key HC Vol 4 Keys To The Kingdom Joe Hill Gabriel Rodriguez Books

I was a little disappointed with this volume of the series on many levels.

Cosmetics:
First the HC book is almost a completely different look from the first three. It sticks out like a sore thumb on my book shelf. and it doesn't have a book mark in it like the first three had. Why? I like the book marks. Also, the first three had a clear division between the title and publisher on its spine and followed a color pattern, which if they had done that at least it would have kinda looked similar.

Story (again, spoiler free):
The pace of the story was sporadic at best. I felt cheated as the most exciting parts seemed to be covered in one or two panels followed by two pages of a panel that only slightly changes and boring dialog(seemingly inconsequential). Don't get me wrong, The writing in these books (i'm including the whole series) are superior to that of the average graphic novel. I think it had a LOT of potential based on the stories that weren't told but were given a glimpse of in only one or two panels. I like the keys that were introduced but it felt forced, like a famous celebrity appearance on a crappy TV show.

Conclusion:
I will buy the next book because im invested, but i may end up moving on to something else if this keeps up. Do not skip this book if you liked book three (it contains some important story line). If you did not like book three i would just call it quits.

Rating:
I'm going to give this book 4 out of 5 stars (on AMAZON) because i want this story to continue to be written and compared to other books it rates high on my list. However, that being said, compared to the previous stories and HC books released i would give this 2 out of five stars on content alone.

Note: I don't know if the lack of bookmark and the discontinuity of the binding influenced me psychologically before i even opened the book, but I think it should be noted that i was disappointed about that as i opened it to read.

Locke Key HC Vol 4 Keys To The Kingdom Joe Hill Gabriel Rodriguez Books Reviews

For four volumes now, Locke & Key has repeatedly demonstrated why it should be at the top of your "to read" list. Not "comics to read," but "works of fiction to read." It is so well written and beautifully illustrated that it will go toe to toe with anything else on your list.

After I read Locke and Key, Volume 3 Crown of Shadows (reviewed elsewhere on this site), I didn't quite know what to expect from Locke and Key, Volume 4 Keys to the Kingdom, written by Joe Hill and illustrated by Gabriel Rodriguez. When I first flipped through the book, I realized more keys were introduced in this volume than in previous ones, and the artwork had a different feel (more on that later). Volume 3 had a creepy, quiet, sad vibe to it. Turns out that was the calm before the storm because Volume 4 is packed with surprises, charm, violence, and the best ending to date.

Volume 4 begins with a pastiche to Calvin and Hobbes. I was a little surprised by this because it's such a different style than what Rodriguez does throughout Locke & Key. But it makes perfect sense, when you see how it is used (and look for a cameo by "Yukon Ho!"). Volume 4 also contains several wordless panels and pages that let Rodriguez's talent shine. I really can't say enough about the artwork in this series. It's beautiful, funny, gory, sexy, spooky, and visceral. Every panel is a pleasure.

And Joe Hill's writing reveals how the Locke kids are coming to terms with their new life and their struggles. Bode is making friends, despite seeming to prefer staying inside his head. He's also learning the severe consequences of fighting the ghosts of Keyhouse Manor. Kinsey is realizing that taking away her fears and sadness might not have been the smartest idea. And poor Tyler learns that becoming an adult can mean getting hurt again and again. But that gives him time to figure out a few things about who is friends really are.

My only complaint is that Nina Locke makes only one appearance in the volume. However, it's a spark of hope amidst the sadness and violence of the rest of the volume. And it reinforces the idea that this is really the story of the Locke kids.

But that's a tiny complaint. And it's more than made up for with the volume's ending. I don't want to spoil it, but man, oh man. Here's my impression of the last few pages Oh no. Oh no! OH NO! Just when you thought things couldn't get any worse, they get MUCH worse. I can't get my hands on Volume 5 soon enough.
