Y-Last man

[kidcolt]

I read the first10 issues when it came out and I thought it was decent. I have been considering picking up the run or at least the TP. How was it towards the end, did it stay interesting, was it good? Is it worth picking up?

[seanfingh]

 

It rules. All the way through.

[tsarax]

Yes, I've read them all and now I'm buying my wife the TPBs. A great, great story. You have to read them all the way through!

 

[MutantKeys]

One of my favorite reads of all time.

I remember thinking that it was slow moving and that they could have done alot more with the story. Great concept but would the last man alive be doing what this guy was doing. I was thinking about it the other day and I thought I read that the series ended (issue 60 I think). Thought it might be a good series to try, seems like it was popular.

you gotta love it when comics get Literary!

diamond is soliciting the HC starting this month if you have the patience to wait. I think HC will be a nice format for this series.

It's good, but wait for the inevitable omnibus edition, if you can. Or wait for the movie (thumbs u

I don't like omnibuses for the most part, too heavy. Now Starman was perfect with the lighter paper.

I enjoyed it most of the way through. I did get a bit too slow right before the end. But I really liked the issues in the 50s and the ending (made up for the slowness).

 

I have to agree, there is no way that the last man would not be lovin' the ladies. That's the true Y story.

What pisses me off is after the HC comes out, we'll get an Absolute Edition later on. They did it with Sandman and I'm sure Y will get the same treatment, eventually

I started reading it when #1 came out. I bought and read it every month until somewhere in the mid thirties and it just started getting to slow, I didn't feel like it was going anywhere. At that point I stopped buying it and sold my run.

Got every issue but #2. Wonder if #2 would be any cheaper now that the series has ended.

 

 

[sborock]

One of the best endings of a series EVER! ( Transmet was better )

 

Worth the read through the "slower" parts.

After not reading a single issue but buying them all, my wife and I both read it over 3 days last weekend. Great book. Loved virtually every minute of it.

I did the same, but stuck with it for the 20 or so issues that slowed it down a bit. You should pick up the trades and read it all at once. When there's no long wait for the next issue to come out, the whole series flows better and never loses momentum.

[Jeffro.]

You should pick up the trades and read it all at once.

 

That's what I did for 1-9. Did not disappoint. The waiting for 10 has been the hardest part.

[cd4ever]

I've only read the first trade but I own all the others except the last one. When that comes out I'll read the whole thing.

 

Having down this a few times (preacher, sandman, Morrison's JLA run) the idea of reading a comic story one part at a time and waiting a month between issues just seems ludicrous to me.

[UnboxingTreasures]

One of the best endings of a series EVER! ( Transmet was better )

 

Worth the read through the "slower" parts.

 

I actually got a little teary eyed reading the last couple issues. I can't remember the last time a story had that effect on me.

I just picked up the full series in TPB last night for $60 on ebay...I'm looking forward to reading it again as I'm ashamed to say that the first time was on a computer (can't fit many books in a coffin locker). Absolutlely loved it though and my girlfriend is dying to read it after flipping threw the first few pages in the LCS the other day. I mean...it's win win...I get my girl a cheap present and keep her busy with comics while I read mine (thumbs u
