I felt the 4th volume was a bit slow and I’m bored of the Beth hunt. Find her, let it be disappointing and let it be over already.

As with other volumes, I could sum this up by saying it was a LOT. But whether it's exposure to the previous books in the series, or a recent read of a Sandman book, it didn't seem as violent or depressing as previous entries, but was absolutely stuffed with plot and action. Considering the next book of the deluxe collected editions is the last one, I guess that makes sense. I have no idea how Vaughan and crew are going to tie up all the loose ends in a satisfactory manner, and yet at the same time, it feels like if the protagonists accomplish a fairly simple set of goals they've had since the beginning, without running into yet more obstacles, it could actually wrap up pretty easily? Not sure what that says about the series as a whole...I'll hold off on final judgement 'til the finale. ⚠️mention of miscarriage

This collection of Y contains a lot of back story, something I’ve been waiting to see more of for a while, however the story running alongside isn’t the most captivating. A good enough run but hoping to see more revelations to come.

Penúltimo volume da série e eu não estou aguentando de ansiedade pelo último volume. O quadrinho acompanha um mundo, onde, por algum motivo desconhecido, todos os animais masculinos (homens e animais) morreram no mesmo instante. Apenas Yorick e seu macaco de estimação sobreviveram e ele está desesperado para chegar até sua namorada na Austrália (ele está nos EUA). Mostrando o efeito que teria se todos os homens simplesmente morressem (não só socialmente falando, o quadrinho mostra estatísticas do que aconteceria com aviões, hidrelétricas), a série evita lugares-comuns antiguados e preconceituosos, apresentando o que poderia realmente vir a acontecer. O Brian K. Vaughn (autor) evita colocar todas as mulheres como um grupo apenas, detalhando a diversidade de ideias e de comportamentos que existem.

The scope of the series expands to a global narrative of espionage and politics. Yorick and his friends race against time to find answers about the plague. Family and friends get in dramatic situations and the past is revisited. Amazing characters and story make this series a classic.
