Childhood ends. Children grow up. And young Alice is now a mother herself, raising her daughter alone in 1990s London. But the Dollhouse has never forgotten the promise that she made. The Dollhouse knows where she's gone. And so does Jenny, the ghost of the girl who died in her orphanage...
Look, if you are not reading the Hill House Comics you are missing out. This series is by far my favorite, but that is like trying to pick your favorite M&M. They are all good. Read Full Review
If you havent already picked up an issue of this series, youre really missing out. If youre a fan of Sandman or Hellblazer then this is for you. If youre a fan of dark, creeping insidious dread in your horror then this is for you. If youre a fan of Stephen King or Joe Hill then this is for you. I have no qualms at all in giving this series a five-star rating so far, and I sincerely look forward to continuing to do so. Read Full Review
Joseph is attempting to finish what he started by facing Cloax himself, Alice is now a mother trying to protect her daughter from an evil dollhouse, and damn Jenny is creepy. This book keeps going in directions that you would never, ever expect, and it just keeps getting stranger and better! The Dollhouse Family is one of my favorite books right now and this issue takes it to another level. Also, what an explosive ending! ;) Read Full Review
As we enter the second half, there are a lot of unanswered questions " and the answers we get just make things more disturbing in the vein of the best thrillers. Read Full Review
Carey and Gross jump through even more time to provide the most haunting chapter of "The Dollhouse Family" yet. Read Full Review
The story is well handled. And while I mentioned artist Peter Gross before as being an excellent artist, I would be remiss if I didn't mention inker Vince Locke. His inks are distinctive and really round out this book well. Read Full Review
Overall, The Dollhouse Family #3could have been the height of the series so far, but instead, it leaves me cautious to pick up another one at all. The supernatural horror is done well while the real-world terror is lazily inserted. Read Full Review
While the quality of the book continues to be high, this specific installment's narrative momentum resulted in a lackluster experience, yet it was far from being a wash, thanks to the high caliber of the story being told. Read Full Review
I LOVE this series and I think it is very underrated. The story is very well crafted and interesting, it's always keeping me on my toes. I always enjoy a psychological mystery/thriller. Even though the series can get sad at several moments because of the physical abuse, it makes you feel closer to the characters. Highly recommend if you like well crafted stories.
This series has been the most developed of the bunch. This feels pure old Vertigo.
Rather disapproving. I really hope we're not going to go into the almost obligatory liberal political territory. This was an interesting story, surely it can continue to be so?
THE GOOD:
-This was OK. Nothing insulting, but nothing I'll remember in two hours.
-The art's good. It's improved quite heavily.
-There was some cool imagery in the dream sequence, I'll admit.
THE BAD:
-I've lost interest in the 1800s storyline, and regained interest in Alice's storyline. This series is so inconsistent.
-I find Alice a boring character.
-None of the horror elements even begin to work here.
-That ending was so very contrived.
I really didn’t enjoy this issue at all.
Man, this series is just devoid of horror, isn't it? I wish it would go someplace interesting.
