Average. I don’t think horror graphic novels are really my thing, but I liked the concept of all the keys. This definitely kept me interested.

Bad writing, worse art. None of the characters are very sympathetic or likable. Joe Hill’s understanding of sex/gender through the “gender key” is incredibly dated and weird. The teenage boy giving an adult trucker oral was really unnecessary and gross.  Seems like Joe Hill cares more about delivering shocks than an actual story.

Loved the story! It had the right amount of heart and horror. The characters felt real, as did their trauma. I cannot wait to see some of the questions I had while reading be answered in the rest of the books.
