Locke & Key by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodríguez
When the Locke family move to Keyhouse, their ancestral home in Lovecraft, Massachusetts, they discover a collection of mysterious keys, each with its own extraordinary power. But something sinister is lurking beneath the house, and it wants those keys for itself.
Joe Hill’s Locke & Key is a brilliantly unsettling blend of supernatural horror, family trauma and dark fantasy. Gabriel Rodríguez’s artwork is wonderfully inventive, shifting from intimate family drama to genuinely nightmarish horror with incredible fluidity. A series about grief, growing up and the dangerous things we unlock when we’re trying to escape ourselves.

What begins as another day in the life of Matt Murdock quickly becomes something far more serious. After a devastating event leaves Daredevil without his powers, he’s forced to confront a world he can no longer experience in the same way, while a dangerous threat begins to take shape around him.

Charles Soule’s sharp, character-driven story is brought to life by Steve McNiven’s detailed artwork, making this a tense and atmospheric take on one of Marvel’s most enduring heroes.
