Locke and Key. Volume 5. Clockworks written by Joe Hill, art by Gabriel Rodriguez, 152 pages
FINALLY a backstory! Don't get me wrong, this series is fantastic. But for some time now, I've been wondering about how all of these magic keys and Zack/scary echo lady/Dodge came to be. The antics of Tyler, Kinsey and Bode (who's no longer quite himself) take a backseat here, as Tyler and Kinsey have stumbled on a time-machine key that takes them back to the origins of the Omega Key, the rest of the keys and Keyhouse itself. This is an excellent installation in the series, and yes, definitely much needed, considering the story's due to wrap up in Volume 6. Can't wait to read it, but I'll be sad when this tale comes to an end.
