The Last Man Vol. 2

Y: THE LAST MAN, winner of three Eisner Awards and one of the most

critically acclaimed, best-selling comic book series of the last decade, is that

rare example of a page-turner that is at once humorous, socially relevant and

endlessly surprising. Written by Brian K. Vaughan (LOST, PRIDE OF BAGHDAD, EX

MACHINA) and with art by Pia Guerra, this is the saga of Yorick Brown--the only

human survivor of a planet-wide plague that instantly kills every mammal

possessing a Y chromosome. Accompanied by a mysterious government agent, a

brilliant young geneticist and his pet monkey, Ampersand, Yorick travels the

world in search of his lost love and the answer to why he's the last man on

Earth. In these stories, a Russian Soyuz capsule is coming down from the

International Space Station carrying three passengers: one woman and two men.

Could this be the end of Yorick's tenure as last living male? And then, as the

Last Man on Earth and his companions continue to head west, the story takes a

detour into the psychological. In the care of a fellow Culper Ring member,

Yorick Brown is forced to confront his tremendous feelings of survivor guilt

that lead him to constantly put his life in danger. Collects Y: THE LAST MAN
