Locke & Key appreciation thread

2 2

I wish it was a tv show. Ill take what I can get.

Is there a way we can watch the pilot that Fox canned?

I haven't heard of a way to see the pilot, other than the people that saw it screened at SDCC many moons ago. No YouTube, no torrent. If anyone does know, I'd like to see it too.

The cringe-worthy factor here is that they compressed the entire first arc Welcome to Lovecraft into that one hour pilot, which boggles my mind with how much you would have to leave on the cutting room floor...maybe I don't want to see it actually...

All I can find is the trailer

For new(er) L & K readers, you can get all 6 volumes via Humble Bundle.

Also included is The March which is a superb read for those history buffs.

Humble Bundle -- IDW // Top Shelf Productions

I have been looking for one of these at an affordable price for a while. I think you all are the experts, is 50.00 a good price? And man, I want the others in that photo!

The last one I watched was FeeBay item #201364101470. Lovecraft mini series (1-6) sold for $50 plus shipping.

For #1 first print, $50 is a very reasonable price.

If you can spend more, I've seen #1 first print CGC 9.8s sell for $150 recently.

I've picked up a few graded 9.8 copies of this book for an average price of around $130.

$50 for a NM+ or better is not bad at all. There aren't a lot of copies out there.

It's almost as if this thread is dead ....anyone out there still collecting the series as that is certainly not dead!! Noticed an add from a gallery in San Diego announcing an exhibition with Gabriel Rodriguez' work. The add also announces a special edition of the upcoming one shot Small World. If any of you fellow boardies plan to attend the exhibition and is willing to help a brother out, please drop me a note. Cheers!

There seems to be very little comic talk in modern.

L&K is obviously a modern classic, though I think the ending turned some people off a little bit, I imagine they'll get over it.

I wish Gabriel would let some of the art out in to the world.

The TV show is "on" again, announced in May or June, with Joe Hill producing. Maybe this time it's for real

Anyone listen to the Audible full cast version of Locke & Key?

I totally forgot about this! I was in Berlin earlier this year and saw advertisements all over the city for it, I even took a picture to remind myself. I'd like to hear from someone that has heard this too.

Anyone read "Small World"?

I loved it, and the art was fantastic

I plan on picking it up tonight, but can't wait

I'm sure those of us who are keeping an eye out saw this announcement about the TV series, but for those of you who didn't!!!!

This is easily one of my favorite modern series, but I think they've made a big mistake selling it to Hulu 

Hope I'm wrong.

It may work out.  Hulu is trying desperately to compete with Netflix et al., and may be willing to throw everything they have behind this.  I'm optimistic.  

If their new show based on the book The Handmaid's Tale blows up big, then I think there will be a glimmer of hope for Locke & Key.
