- Weakest Since "One Small Step," But Still Some of the Best Stuff Around
Brian K. Vaughan continues to churn out awesome volume after awesome volume of "Y: The Last Man." This trade paperback consists of the four issue "Girl on Girl" story arc (that features Yorick, 355, and Dr. Mann aboard a ship that is in big time conflict with a submarine that is a bit too close for comfort) and the one-shot "Boy Loses Girl," which gives us an update on Beth's situation.

Every since the Safeword arc, "Y: The Last Man" has pretty much been solid gold through and through. So when I say that this TPB is the weakest volume in the series since the third book, that's really not a negative remark, because this was a really, really entertaining book. I wouldn't mark it as high as "Safeword" or "Ring of Truth", which contained some of the best comics I've ever read, but this is still way-above-average stuff.

I wasn't in love with the story of the four-issue "Girl on Girl" arc, ... Read More

- A little slow
Volume 6 of Y The Last Man lagged a little bit more than its predecessors. This slow pacing was not as entertaining. Also, this volume kind of went on sub-plots which really didn't add to much to the main story. Not that it was bad or anything, it's just that I could have gone without reading this volume.

- Still good, but something of a pause in the overall story
The fifth collection in the series, RING OF TRUTH, saw Yorick, 355, Dr. Mann, and Ampersand complete their transcontinental journey. GIRL ON GIRL sees them crossing the Pacific on the trail of Ampersand's abductor, who has taken him to Japan. It isn't that the stories here are bad; they simply aren't as good as what came before or what would come after.

And yes, there is girl on girl action. Although there had been some extremely repressed sexual tension between Yorick and Agent 355 in the first few books, nothing had happened. So one could hardly blame 355 when she finds herself in a moment alone with Dr. Mann that leads to some much needed affection. Yorick, who to tell the truth is a real weenie of a character (and the series weakest element), reacts badly upon discovering them together.

This isn't quite filler material, but it is close. It introduces some plot elements that lead ... Read More

- Graphic SF Reader
Yorick is a bit confused and conflicted, when Agent 355 and Dr Mann have a fling.

Apart from this, the gang hitch a ride on a pirate ship, as eventually Yorick wants to find his girlfriend Beth, who is in Australia. He finds somewhat of a kindred spirit in the pirate captain, if you forget about the fact that she is a pirate.

Problems escalate when the Australian navy and spies become involved.
