Kayla Washington: What an ending! I'm not ready to leave lovecraft, but the story was absolutely beautiful and complete. I'm sad for the characters that we lost but those who remained had such realistic growth. safisfing series, a must read!

Cliente Amazon: A conclusão da série torna a série melhor ainda. Uma obra maravilhosa, dizer que amei é pouco, faz um tempo que uma graphic novel me emociona desse jeito tem de tudo!

Ellis Seidel: The story is fantastic and the art is great. I knocked a star for slur usage. Joe Hill needs to find a better way to indicate 5e lapses in a villain’s character than the use of slurs. The liberal and abundant use of the R slur is not necessary, get a thesaurus man. Also the use of the T-slur when talking about the gender weaponization of the main villain/antagonist was unnecessary. There are other more creative ways to say what was said and have a villain use language intended to manipulate and hurt characters than to use TERF language and talking points in a self referential way. I feel like Joe Hill’s story telling could benefit from a little more actual understanding of the minority communities that he so lightly uses really harmful language about.

And, Mr Hill, it’s THE SCHOOL of the Art Institute of Chicago. You used the name of the museum, not the professional art school. IYKYK, and apparently you don’t. You’re far from alone, so that’s a side note.

I loved this series. I think that the author could make more sensitive and informed language choices. And needs to read more up to date gender ideology. Great story teller tho.

Mrs E Stevenson: Such good twists and turns, the Netflix series leaves so much out but I thank them for turning me to the originals and taking me on this wild ride of the Locke family and all the keys the encounter! Although I’m late to the party I guess it’s always better being late to it than never turning up!

Cranberry79: So I skipped writing reviews for the last two books and added them to this final one. If you want a truly sticks with you storyline, this is the graphic novel series for it!! The story drags you in as soon as you read Welcome to Lovecraft. It keeps getting better and adding depth to the many layers of the characters and the various keys. Just when you thought you understood the bizarre keys in the story, a new 2 appeared.
This is definitely a graphic novel worth reading and the fantastic artwork does amazing work adding depth to the story with every page turn. I just hope Netflix doesn't ruin the novels with their series. To be honest, a friend started watching the show and it got me to check it out, watched the trailer, started reading the novels once i discovered it was a graphic novel. Read it, it won't disappoint!
The conclusion was amazing and none of our was what you thought out would be. Can't wait to read the book about the different keys!

Stephen Arvidson: Alpha & Omega, the sixth and final installment of the spectacular Locke & Key series, brings the story of the Locke Family and Keyhouse to a compelling and devastating close. Dodge, now inhabiting young Bode Locke's body, has the Omega key and nothing can stop him from using it. As Kinsey Locke and the other students head to the Lovecraft Academy prom, the demonic Dodge gathers shadowy forces of his own and enacts his evil endgame. The shadow monsters attack. Hope diminishes. The damned and the saved alike make their final stand in the Drowning Cave.

The final showdown of Locke & Key is a spellbinding one, with a devastatingly high body count and a number of personal sacrifices. Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez do not pull their punches, and each one lands square in the reader's gut. The closing chapter of this volume (and thus, series) is a quiet epilogue that focuses not on the plot but rather the characters as they attempt to heal and cope with loss. This series has always been more of a character exploration, so naturally there are some final chances at redemption. The Locke family struggles to find peace with the traumas of the past, and...

Amazon Customer: Arrived sooner than expected! I can't say much else other than it was in pristine condition and a fulfilling end to the Locke and Key series. If anyone is looking to get into comics but wants to stay away from anything "superhero", this series is a great place to start. The audience is captivated right until the very end and will be talking about it for months to come once finished.

ispitinyourcoke: I'm surprised that there is a review for this title from someone who hasn't read the rest of the series - I imagine if you are reading this, you're either wondering if you should wait for the price to drop on Volume 6, or if you should start reading the series now. So, if you haven't yet, go back and start reading Volume 1. You'll be lucky in that you won't have to wait several years to see its conclusion!

I've read quite a bit of Joe Hill's work. His short stories are great, but I've always felt that his novels tend to drop off a little bit as you get closer to their conclusion. Locke and Key, however, does not disappoint - I think Hill knew exactly where he was heading when he started out with this series. Volume 6 is very moving, and manages to wrap up all the story lines in an entertaining way. I imagine no one who has been keeping up with this series will be disappointed with its ending. If you've read Joe Hill's other work, you'll know what to expect, for the most part, though he seems to be getting better at fleshing out the endings of his tales. I must admit, however, that the only real let-down is that I was kind of hoping there would be...
