Joe Hill’s first foray into comics, Locke & Key: Welcome to Lovecraft (review), was yet another indication of what a versatile writer Hill is and a great example of how an artist’s work can make a writer’s words come to life.
Now IDW is prepping for the release of the second story arc in Hill’s twisted universe, Locke & Key: Head Games. The first issue will be hitting shelves later this month and features Gabriel Rodriguez back on art duties. With that kind of skill behind the book, I’m sure it’ll be just as good, if not better, than the first series.
Here’s the official synopsis for Locke & Key: Head Games: Following a shocking death that dredges up memories of their father's murder, Kinsey and Tyler Locke are thrown into choppy emotional waters and turn to their new friend, Zack Wells, for support. However, the Locke family has no idea that Zack Wells hides a dire secret that tracks back to their father and Keyhouse, a secret Zack is willing to protect at any cost.
The first issue will be in better comic shops this month so keep your eye peeled, and use the link below to get yourself a copy of Locke & Key: Welcome to Lovecraft!

Stephen King's apple didn't fall from the tree, it seems. I stll need to read "Heart-Shaped Box". My mother said it was excellent.
