Y: The Last Man, Volume 9: Motherland

Vertigo, 2007
The heat turns way up.
Although I like the previous issue better than this one, Motherland has it's own perks as the story starts to wrap up for our protagonists. Things get a little strange when one of the characters becomes fatally injured, and Yorick almost REALLY dies this time though not of his own occord. I still have no complaints about this series, there's a damn good fight scene, a couple questions finally get ...

Definitely one of the best volumes
This volume pretty much blew my mind away. Flycatcher had usually been such a insignificant character, and now... wow. The whole story was incredible, and I am eager to see what Volume 11 will bring.

The plot thickens and the fun continues
The first book in Brian K. Vaughan's Y: THE LAST MAN set up the premise: all the males in the world of every species have died except for loser named Yorick Brown and his pet monkey Ampersand. In the chaos that follows American society is oppressed by totalitarian Amazons, who are marked ideologically by an intense detestation of all things male (in later books they will even try to tear down ...

Excellent and chilling
Yet another perfectly crafted authoritarian horror story, reminiscent of Brave New World or 1984. Plotting, pacing, artwork, all top notch. A must read for everyone.

Good Ending to Series.
A good ending to a great series. Parts were a little disjointed though. That's why I only give it a 4/5.
Y: The Last Man Vol. 7: Paper Dolls

Great addition to the series
Paper Dolls had so many twists to it that I almost couldn't keep up. This series just gets you hooked and never fails to entertain. If you're looking for an example of why Y The Last Man is so highly regarded, check out volume 4 and this volume.

Two Words........
Chibi Endless!! I love how the first two appeared, and the bit in the gallery is perfect! And yes, the rest is up to standard- ie Gaiman's amazing standard! Beautiful art, but the story lines! just wow. The characters have a reality to them. Delirium, in particular, reminds me of someone I know. The stories unfold so naturally. I look forward to vol 4.

THIS IS THE REAL DEAL
This is my favorite comic book story. I was already a Gaiman fan, having read "Good Omens". But the intense intelligence and respect for the form of mythology in particular and story-telling in general, not to mention one of the all time great jumping off points (Lucifer's abdication of Hell), create a story that is breathtaking in it's scope and imagination. AMAZING! And I haven't even ...

Good, but perhaps weakest book in series
This trade paperback collects issues #32-36 of the excellent DC Comics series. All but the last feature guest artists instead of co-creator Pia Guerra. Though the series is still enjoyable, I'd echo some other reviewers' statements about this seeming like filler material. Agent 355, Dr. Mann and stowaway Yorick hitch a ride across the Pacific on a commercial ship 'The Whale' in pursuit of ...

If anything, an improvement on the first two books
As I write this, Brian K. Vaughan has finished work on the last issue of his truly massive Y: THE LAST MAN series. In terms of sustained narrative, it will certainly go down as one of the longest, most epic stories in the entire world of comics and graphic novels. The first two books in the series were good, very good, but this one might even be better. There are some wonderful new twists ...

Y: The Last Man is Rad
I'm not sure that I could tell you what Y's core values are, but I feel like they stray from them a bit as the series progresses (parhaps redefined). Moot point though, this is well worth a read. Get them all. I made a decision to own them after I read a friend's first issue....
Y: The Last Man, Volume 5: Ring of Truth

best in the series
This is the best book in the series. I really started to like Yorick in this book. And the story begins moving forward after being drifting in the Midwest for a long time. It is well worth the read if you get the opportunity.

I think I saw Martin Tenbones on the streets yesterday...
Like a huge boulder that cannot be stopped, Gaiman continues to plow through the journeys of the characters we first were introduced to in the spellbinding introduction entitled "Preludes and Nocturnes" with his fifth collection aptly titled "A Game of You". Like no other artist that I have seen in the past, Gaiman impresses yet again by taking a smaller character from his "Doll House" ...

Amazing...
The book is over sized with with a removable box dust cover. The binding is gorgeous and cryptic. Truly inspired by Gaimans work. The pages are thick and colorful... filled with beautiful art and Gaimans amazing stories of his Endless characters.
Preacher Vol. 1: Gone to Texas

Ennis & Dillon at their best (still!)
Sometimes you reread titles and are disappointed. Other times, they've not faded at all. As much as I enjoy all..er... most of Ennis and Dillon's collaborations, they've never topped Preacher. Any single volume of Preacher makes for a self-contained read, but this, the first in the series, is still the best. Jesse and his band of merry pals are all introduced and the overall plot ('find God') ...
