After the life-changing events of the previous issue, the guests at the nice house on the lake must decide their next steps-but there’s not exactly perfect agreement about the situation. Who among them is ready to walk out the door? And who is content to simply…float?
We're only two issues in and I'm already in love with this series. Any fan of horror or any sort of speculative fiction would do well to check out this title. Read Full Review
I think everyone secretly prays for a comic-book or TV show to come along, that grabs them from the first chapter and then keeps delivering. In reality, most stories take a few instalments to set up, and then deliver random hits and misses through the rest of their tenure. The Nice House On The Lake reeled me in from the off, and it's possible that issue #2 may even be better than the opener. Read Full Review
The Nice House on the Lake #2The Nice House on the Lake is an intoxicating read, period. Its hard to stop pouring over each panel, each line of dialogue trying to figure everything out. Issue #2 gives readers enough story to keep them hooked while also teasing so much more horror to come. The monthly wait is starting to get difficult, and I can only see it getting harder to hold out till the next chapter. Read Full Review
Tynions' ability to create real characters that we somehow know from limited text brings this alive and the subtle use of mediums like cameras, scripts and artwork layer the book. The artist and colouring team of Bellaire and Bueno bring every panel alive with a feeling of dread and awe. Read Full Review
Alvaro Martinez Bueno crafts some beautiful art with this issue. There is an intimacy to the location and the character interactions that make you feel part of the story itself. Read Full Review
Overall, The Nice House On The Lake #2 does a great job at building suspense and advancing the story while still leaving you with questions. What Tynion has created, in just two issues, is one of the most compelling stories I have read in some time. I can't wait to see how this story unfolds. Read Full Review
The first issue was a showstopper. This one doubles down on suspense while preserving the indelible character beats that have made James Tynion IV and lvaro Martnez Bueno a can't-miss creative team. Read Full Review
The Nice House on the Lake #2 takes the promising premise introduced in #1 and clarifies just how deep this rabbit hole is designed to go; from the look of things here the series has a long road ahead of it and that's cause to celebrate. Read Full Review

"Nice House on the Lake" #2 is an issue that turns up the mystery and adds extra genre influences into the story. Read Full Review
The Nice House on the Lake #2 starts to explore the house and the group more. Plus, we learn Walter has been involved in their lives for a lot longer than we thought in the first issue. The mystery of what happened to the world and what will happen to the Lake group is still in the early stages. However, so far, it is a mystery worth following. Read Full Review
Another great issue!
This is a major movie waiting to happen. I cant believe im saying this about a DC book....
Too good and can't wait for the next issue.
Just like the first, I thought this issue was spectacular. Although, more plot development and different character arcs, it still kept everything grounded and each character has their moment. The writing is so good and feels personal. It feels so grounded in reality that you can imagine this happening to your world. Some nice back story sets up the tone of this book well, and the art is fantastic. I am excited to see where this series heads off to.
I absolutely love everything about this comic. The writing,art style the vibe it is all amazing! I can see this becoming a great live action adaptation in the future!
Continues to be engaging and mysterious.
Artwork is stellar.
After the events in last issue, I now have a greater appreciation of the artists of this series. The page layouts leave an impression that the reader is an accomplice to the series antagonist. We watch as the cast try to make sense of everything while we look at them from a very safe distance. We empathize with the questions the cast asks like what happens, but we don't have the slightest idea of what they're going through. Worse for them yet, we're still curious what the host wanted from them all. The reader's are now in too deep and we're the host's accomplices.
For me, this story is interesting and engaging. It's like a murder mystery and has great art. We'll have to see where this is heading.
The layers keep unraveling…this has been so good.
Ah yes, my fav late night read... This series is bold and weird and awesome. The art continues to be an eerie wonder and the writing is so heartfelt and real and f****d up. Love it!
And ofc the mistery goes on, and I need answers!
I wasn't the biggest fan of the 1st issue, maybe it was all the hype leading up to it that made me have too much excitement. But....... this issue hooked me right in, really good.
You can tell this is going to be a great series. It really builds on the mystery while just giving an overall sense of helplessness with the characters.
This is a solid issue. Just a minor non-complaint, the internet probably wouldn't function in the case of everyone dying in a hellfire melting incident. The servers would be destroyed, but let's say they weren't, you'd still start seeing outages almost immediately. You still need meatware to make these things run consistently.
