This series just keeps getting better. The plot is nicely unpredictable and the twists are completely original. The artwork also blows me away.

The most interesting part of this volume was finding out that Duncan is gay.

Characters continue to make silly choices, but you forgive them because they're children and you hope they'll grow by the end. It's something I'm enjoying, but it's not really something I'd get excited to chat with someone about. There's imagination in this story, I'll give it that, and the characters are likable enough to continue. Let's see where this goes.

On retrouve dans ce deuxième tome, Tyler, Kinsey et Bode qui sont tous subjugués par le pouvoir d’une clé permettant de s’ouvrir le crâne afin d’ajouter et/ou ôter des souvenirs. Si Tyler y voit le moyen rêvé de rattraper son retard scolaire, Kinsey y voit la solution pour supprimer des souvenirs douloureux et ainsi alléger un peu son existence. Quant à leur nouvel ami, Dodge, il préfère utiliser la clef pour poursuivre son objectif que je vous laisse le plaisir de découvrir, et perpétrer ses méfaits en toute impunité.

J’ai de nouveau été séduite par ce comics même si j’ai trouvé l’histoire un peu moins haletante que dans le premier tome. J’ai particulièrement apprécié d’en apprendre plus sur Dodge qui se révèle être un personnage aussi intéressant que maléfique. Le rapprochement de ce personnage avec Tyler et Kinsey suscite une certaine angoisse d’autant qu’ils ne peuvent pas compter sur le soutien de leur mère qui a sombré dans l’alcoolisme.

En bref, si vous aimez les ambiances sombres, le mystère, des personnages que rien n’arrêtent, ce deuxième tome devrait vous plaire.

I liked how this volume brought even more characters into the fold. And I love the emphasis on finding on what a specific key does in each installment. There were also some really great pages in this book especially when they were using the head key. The art for that was amazing.

I'm really intrigued by Rufus right now and want to know more about him. Luke/Zack continues to infuriate me because he is clearly up to no good.

This was 100x better than the first volume and it picks off right where the first volume ended. I felt this had more action, mystery, and felt at the edge of my seat when it comes to the villain of this series. I cannot wait to read more! There's not much for me to say except that I only care about the little boy and forget about his other siblings. I cannot wait to discover more keys that are hiding in the house!
