Panelology is a weekly podcast about comics. We talk about current books, what we're looking forward to, and how to get into reading comics in the first place.

Y: The Last Man: Girl on Girl (Image Comics, 2002; #32-36)

  • Yorrick, Dr. Mann, and 355 take a leisurely cruise across the Pacific. 
  • New relationships form, and existing once take new turns resulting in some kind of relationship...bipyramidal octahedron?
  • Oh, and there are pirates. 
  • Plus, Beth finally sees a hint of agency!
  • Vaughan keeps his script snappy and humorous; he even gets in some meta-commentary on Yorrick's role as protagonist. 
  • Pia Guerra, Goran Sudžuka, José Marzán Jr, and Zylonol’s art continues to impress. 

I don't have to tell you not to jump in on the sixth arc of a Brian K. Vaughan story, do I? But you should jump in on Vol. 1.
