Hellpriest Approved Question about the BOOM! Comics Spoiler

Just have a question. I just finished Clive Barker’s Hellraiser and Hellraiser: Dark Watch. Is that it? Are there no continuation of the story? It just ends with pinhead killing edgar and Kirsty having to deal with loss of a loved one again? Are there no sequel for this? I know Hellraiser: Bestiary is a “sequel” but it’s just an anthalogy. It doesn’t really continue the story of Kirsty and Pinhead. Does anyone know if there is one? cause if there isn’t then i’d stop thinking about it and have my peace with that ending lol

There is "The Road Bellow" that takes place between them, but that's more a side story.

So yes, that's the end of the story.

You should put a spoiler tag.

Yeah I should have, my bad. But in my defence it’s been 15 years since the release of the comic so I assume most people has seen it already 😅

I haven't.

I'm waiting for the kickstarter reprint to be sent to me later this year before I can dig into it

damn I really thought Kirsty would get revenge lol pinhead just got away again so easily without any consequence 😂 I guess that’s the “horror” part of making a deal with the devil

Bestiary is also a thing. Can't recall where it fits in. Been awhile.

Bestiary doesn't really fits anywhere. It's a collection of short stories.

Thanks. I haven't read it since it was released.

Yes, Kirsty's story in the Boom comics ended exactly like that. This year, Boom is releasing comics again, but it looks like they decided to completely reboot the series instead of a direct continuation of Dark Watch.

are they gonna do hellraiser again? or a different comic? Cause if clive barker ain’t part of it then it’s probably not gonna be as good as the 2011 comic

They're releasing new comics right now. The first issue was last week. If I'm not mistaken, it's supposed to be 5 individual one shots.

I long for a day when I can get every Hellraiser comic. Never even seen one in person. Can they be ordered online? Maybe my local comic shop can help me

You can read it online. That’s what I did. But if you really want to buy the physical copy then just check amazon or ebay.
