“Y The Last Man” Deluxe Vol.1 (Vertigo)

YTheLastMan-Deluxe-01All the men are dead. Except for one. The future rests on his shoulders, but he’s not ready for that responsibility.

Writer: Brian K. Vaughan | Artist: Pia Guerra | Inks: Jose Marzan, Jr. | Colours: Pamela Rambo

This is the saga of Yorick Brown – the only human survivor of a planet-wide plague that instantly kills every mammal with a Y chromosome. Accompanied by his pet monkey, Yorick searches for his lost love... And the answer to why he’s the last man on earth.

Before picking this book up, I had managed to read the first issue of the series for free on Comixology. It gave me just enough to make me know I had to read this series. And I’m very glad that I took the chance on this collection. It’s an interesting an original apocalyptic premise, one I think Vaughan and Co. manage to pull off intelligently and deftly. This book collects the first two storyline, “Unmanned” and “Cycles”.
