The Keys Collection is the fifth (now unboxed) set of Michael Jantze's Harvey Award-nominated "The Norm" syndicated comic strip. This Kindle edition includes all four booklets with more than 300 black and white daily comics. "The Keys Collection" holds the continuing saga of our hero as he confronts his feelings for a friend, attends a valentine dinner for losers and entertains a father that is not his before events lead him on detours and deliberations of his friends, his employment and, most importantly, a life-changing, celebrity filled island adventure (the English call it a holiday but get it over, Manchester!).

In this collection Norm gets back to work at his old job. He is still playing pretend with his friend Reine and Reine and her parents take him on a vacation to Hawaii. Nothing can go wrong with that can it?

How much can I gush about this series? To me it has just gotten better as I’ve gotten older. More of the jokes are relate-able and some are quite hilarious in my opinion. To be honest, I’m kinda sad I’m getting close to the last few books of the series.

They have really helped me through these last few days as I sit with my father in the hospital after surgery. They have helped keep me laughing.

I have always loved reading comics, but until about a few years ago The Norm escaped me. I added it to my list at GoComics and I slowly realized how awesome it was. The characters grow. The writing is quirky, sly and wise. Reading these in order have elevated my appreciation.

Highly recommend to join The Norm!
