One of the best comics I’ve ever read and one of my favorite pieces of Science Fiction I’ve ever read. It’s uncomfortable and bleak and upsetting and freaky and fascinating. The beautiful art and uniquely designed panels really make the story pop.
Everyone who was invited to the house knows Walter—well, they know him a little, anyway. Some met him in childhood; some met him months ago. And Walter’s always been a little…off. But after the hardest year of their lives, nobody was going to turn down Walter’s invitation to an astonishingly beautiful house in the woods, overlooking an enormous sylvan lake. It’s beautiful, it’s opulent, it’s private—so a week of putting up with Walter’s weird little schemes and nicknames in exchange for the vacation of a lifetime? Why not?
DC has another hit and James Tynion seems to have a formula lately that just works. Story after story by Tynion easily gain steam and can keep going for a while. The Nice House on the Lake is another that will capture its audience and keep them waiting for what happens next. Although dark, the premise and structure of the story were both interesting and seeing how it unravels should keep readers pretty interested with all the different storylines that could open up. 4 stars

I am SO invested in this series now. Art is amazing, the mystery is fantastic, characters are really fleshed out and interesting. Really excited for when Volume 2 comes out.
Wow! This was excellent. The writing was great with a thrilling story and plenty of cliffhangers. The art is okay, sometimes it’s better than others and the transcripts at first felt kind of lazy. There’s a couple of other aspects that I don’t like that’s more of a personal thing but I don’t want to spoil it but really good and am looking forward to the next volume
