Bloodborne issue #15: The Veil, Torn Asunder


50763561. sx318 sy475

Today’s post is on Bloodborne issue #15: The Veil, Torn Asunder by Aleš Kot, illustrated by Piotr Kowalski and Brad Simpson. It is the 31 pages long and published by Titan Comics. The cover has a hunter walking through Yarnham with crows following them. The intended reader is someone who has read the first two issues of the series. There is mild foul language, no sex, nudity, and mild violence in this comic. The story is told from third person close of the nameless man. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From the eblurb on Hoopla- The city of Yharnam: an ancient, gothic metropolis and home to the Healing Church.
The Healing Church is known for its miraculous blood-based curatives, of which many – citizens and travelers alike – seek to exploit.
Recent days have seen the city fall foul to a nightmarish plague known as the Ashen Blood disease, the source of which remains a mystery.
Trapped in a threatening world of gods and monsters, where reality is never what it seems, one man resolves to welcome the madness, and the truth it may reveal…
Review- The plot for this arc is finally coming into focus. The nameless man is some kind of traveler moving from place to place seeing what is happening in Yarnham and those who are doing things like the hunter with the pale blood child or Elieen the crow as she goes through her madness. I think that I know who the man is but I am not sure. This was the best volume of the series so far with more answers than we had been given in the previous issues.
I give this volume a Four out of Five stars. I get nothing for my review and I borrowed this comic from my library’s Hoopla account.
