The Nice House on the Lake and The Nice House by the Sea are two post-apocalyptic horror comic book limited series created by James Tynion IV and Álvaro Martínez Bueno, and published by DC Comics through their Black Label imprint. The Nice House on the Lake debuted on June 1, 2021, and concluded on December 27, 2022. This first series focuses on the mysterious Walter, who invites ten[a] of his friends to an idyllic house in the countryside, only for them to witness the end of the world and be told they are not allowed to leave. The series received critical acclaim, winning four Eisner Awards including the 2022 award for Best New Series.

A second "cycle" in the same setting, The Nice House by the Sea, began on July 24, 2024.[1] This series follows a different household consisting of exemplary humans selected by Max, another member of Walter's species.[2]
