Final TPB offers lukewarm conclusion to an enjoyable series

This tenth "Y The Last Man" trade paperback collects the final six issues (#55-#60) of the acclaimed Vertigo/DC Comics series. Yorick, 355, Hero, the two Beths, the Russians and the Israeli soldiers converge in Paris as the main plotline concludes in Issue 59. Issue 60 is set sixty years in the future and also features some intermittent Yorick flashbacks. The resolutions in Book 10 seemed disappointing compared to previous plot segments. Pia Guerra pencils all six issues and her artwork remains consistently outstanding (page 152 is especially moving). I've read that New Line Cinema plans to finish filming the Y movie in 2008.

Anitclimatic

I was rather disappointed in this last volume and felt that it was rather anticlimactic. I had to go back and re-read volumes 8 and 9, because I came to realize that the climax has already occurred in those volumes, and volume 10 just wraps up the story. Over-all, however, the series was excellent and is highly recommended. I hope the upcoming movie project does it justice.

Graphic Reader

Over all I enjoyed the book, although I did feel that the ending was a little rushed. Still would recommend it to anyone who likes a good story.
