When you think the horror genre in comics has shown everything it has to offer, The Nice House on the Lake and The Nice House by the Sea prove otherwise. Created by writer James Tynion IV and artist Álvaro Martínez Bueno, these series blend psychological horror, mystery, and science fiction into one of the most compelling comic stories of recent years.
The story begins with a group of friends invited to a luxurious retreat by their enigmatic friend Walter. Soon, they discover that the outside world has ended, leaving them trapped in a seemingly perfect sanctuary. What follows is not just a survival story, but an exploration of friendship, fear, and what it means to be human in the face of extinction.
While The Nice House on the Lake focuses on unraveling the mystery surrounding Walter and the apocalypse, The Nice House by the Sea expands the world and raises even bigger questions about humanity’s future. Both series balance suspense, emotional depth, and shocking revelations with remarkable confidence.
Álvaro Martínez Bueno’s artwork perfectly complements the story, creating an atmosphere that is both beautiful and deeply unsettling. Every page enhances the tension and mystery, making it difficult to put the books down.
The Nice House on the Lake and The Nice House by the Sea are rare examples of horror comics that are not only frightening but also thought-provoking. Fans of psychological horror, science fiction, and character-driven storytelling should not miss them.
Rating: 9.5/10 – A haunting, intelligent, and unforgettable reading experience.
