Not sure if this last volume's resolutions (the explanation for the plague, and the emotional endings) fully work for me, but nevertheless, this was a very fun series to read.
As a series, Y:The Last Man is a hell of an accomplishment, but I would be lying if I said a specific choice made in this last book didn't colour my impression of the series as a whole. Okay, from a ‘congratulations, you produced an emotional impact!' perspective, I understand the choices made. Even from a statement about long-running toxic cycles of violence, which could be heavily attached to the patriarchy, I get the choices made. But between this and Saga, I am so very, VERY over Vaughan fridging the love interest to further the plot. Having consumed much of it, I'm now going on an extended break from his work.
