4.0 out of 5 stars Spoiler Free Review, 23 Mar 2009
By Ralco (York, UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Y: The Last Man Deluxe: Bk. 1 (Hardcover)
Many of the reviews for this product are actually for other volumes of this series, so check that when you look at other reviews.

I really enjoyed the story. Every chapter/issue ends on a cliffhanger and the characters are interesting, if not fully explored yet. There are lots more reviews if you look around on the internet and I don't want to give spoilers so I won't go into the plot (though I'm sure you know the basic premise).

I really really enjoyed the artwork. While I agree with the other reviewer who said it is simple, I disagree that that is a negative thing. In a lot of ways this series is a bit like a soap opera with a focus on character, and I think the art really allows for this focus on characterisation. I would recommend checking out the art if possible to see what you think.

The product itself is pretty nice. It's oversized, contains I think ten issues (I might be wrong on that though), and the paper is not glossy like marvel oversized, but is quite thick so it does feel like a good quality product. The dustcover is papery too, rather than glossy which I didn't think was too good, but it doesn't matter too much. The colours are crisp and clear, and are better than I remember the colours being when I glanced through a TPB to see if I would like the art (I can't stand art I don't like. I wouldn't read a series with a writer I like if I didn't like the art).

I recommend trying this series. I really enjoyed it. The second volume is out June 09 so you won't have too long to wait until you can continue the story.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another great entry, 27 Jul 2006
This review is from: Y: The Last Man Vol. 7 - Paper Dolls (Paperback)
This is anothere great entry in the Y:The Last Man series although it doesn't have an overarching plot like the other books in the series so far. Its more set up for future storylines and some tantalising background on various people. Don't start with this one. Start with Unmanned.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of my favourites, 14 Aug 2008
By B. Donohoe (Nottingham) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This was a much anticipated finale to a superb comic book. I started buying it some time ago from a recommendation and have been really impressed with the series. I have now collected all 10 of the graphic novels.

I ordered it way back in June on the pre-order system and saved a couple of quid because of it. However it was delivered way way past the actual release date and i have been sent a copy which has 20 pages printed upside down!

Amazon have really let me down with this one, the only reason i used Amazon for this is that i no longer have access to a comic book shop so i'm really disappointed to have had to wait almost a month longer than those lucky enough to be close to their local shop.

The Amazon service has really been going down hill of late and I've just about had enough. Also the transfer of the DVD rental to the appalling LoveFilm has led to me cancelling my subscription. Rant over!

5 stars cos the comic itself is superb, not gonna tar Vertigo with the grubby Amazon brush!
