Today’s post is on Bloodborne: The Healing Thirst volume 7
by by Ales Kot and illustrated by Piotr Kowalski, Brad Simpson. The cover has a
hunter being a beast on it. The intended reader is someone who has read the
first four issues, likes dark gothic horror. There is mild foul language, no
sex, and violence in this comic. The story is told from the third person close
of the two main characters. There Be Spoilers Ahead.
From Hoopla- The city of Yharnam: an ancient, gothic
metropolis and home to the Healing Church.
Founded by Laurence, the first vicar, the church has become renowned for its miraculous blood-based curatives, attracting the sick and afflicted to Yharnam from far and wide.
However, 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.
Hunters now stalk the streets in search of beasts as the moon hangs ominously low in Yharnam's sky, while two unlikely citizens search for answers…

Review- Everything is starting to unravel in Yharnam now. The
hunters are becoming what they hunt, the citizens are frightened and getting
eaten by beasts, and the Healing Church knows what is happening but for some
unknown reason is doing nothing to stop it. The doctor and the monk are both
looking for answers from two different places but they come to the same
conclusions. The Healing Church is the source of the beast plague but not the
pale blood. The volume ends with a cliff-hanger about what they are going to do
next. This story arc has been very interesting with the dual perspectives
hunting for answers to the plagues, discovering more then they wanted and
getting the reader insight into the world of Old Yharnam and what happened before
the start of the game. I am very curious about where the story is going to end.
I give this volume a Five out of Five stars. I get nothing
for my review and I borrowed this comic from my local library Hoopla account.
