All the men on Planet Earth are dead except Yorick Brown. That's the story in Y: The Last Man, the fantastic graphic novel series by Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra.
Collected in 10 volumes and published by Vertigo, it is one of the best reads of my life! A strange epidemic leaves all men on earth dead and the women take over the planet. Sole survivor Yorick and his monkey (yes, his monkey..) set out on a journey to reunite him with his girlfriend. On the way they meet Israeli troops, crazy politicians and some seriously deranged amazons.... and that just in the first couple of issues. This is EPIC storytelling with a very serious and thought provoking undertone. A modern classic to be sure. A movie/tv show is soooo going to happen. Mark my words!
Yorick Brown, our very reluctant hero and his gang.
