It's 2002, and a plague of unknown origin has killed all of the male mammals on Earth-all except an amateur escape artist named Yorick Brown and his surly helper monkey, Ampersand. As the last remaining &-chromosome carriers on the planet, Yorick and his pet hold the fate of humanity in their hands. To ensure the survival of the species, they've teamed up with a gun-toting government agent and the world's premier bioengineer to discover the secret behind the plague. But while they ride the rails across a radically transformed America, the man-hating Daughters of the Amazon are right behind them-and an unplanned stopover in the seemingly utopian town of Marrisville, Ohio may mean the end of the line for the Last Man.

Very well done, excellent art. I hope Yorick becomes way less insufferable and the female characters get some more depth, because this was more than a little bit of an MRA-style fantasy.

What would happen if all men on the planet died – except one? With every other post-apocalyptic story involving the same struggles, exploring an entirely new take on the world offered a refreshing change. For the entire series, I was thinking “one more...”, and enjoyed the eventual payoffs.

I don't really enjoy the main character, but the ‘what if' scenario is rather great, with interesting side plots.
