To quote from my much beloved Supernatural : Endings are hard. Any chapped-ass monkey with a keyboard can poop out a beginning, but endings are impossible. You try to tie up Y: The Last Man: Book 5 loose end, but you never can. The fans are always gonna bitch. There's always gonna be holes. And since it's the ending, it's all supposed to add up to something. I'm telling you, they're a raging pain in the ass. Anyone who has ever fallen "It's not how you start, but how you finish. Anyone who has ever fallen in love with characters enough to follow them through many pages and various books is familiar with that aching feel of needing to get to the end but never wanting it to be over. Oh the betrayal! Oh the crushing disappointment! Oh yes, can you spell "shameless fangirl"? The premise is just simply fantastic and oh so deliciously tantalizing with possibilities. What would Y: The Last Man: Book 5 if one day without warning ALL the men on the planet just up and died, including any Y-chromosome carrying mammals … ALL that is except for the unassuming, underachieving twenty-something Yorick and his pet male Capuchin monkey Ampersand. Yes, starting this epic story would be easy I loved getting this story all in one rush — the momentum never slowed, I never had a chance to forget characters, or salient plot points. I was living and breathing the adventure and like any addict, I never wanted it to end. But all good things must, and this series is no exception. Y: The Last Man: Book 5 feared the ending as much as I craved it. Disappointed I did not want to be After coming along for the ride this far, and thinking about little else in-between, I expected BIG. Keep my expectations reasonable? Heart-pounding, heartbreaking, white-knuckling, shocking, and bruising — this is just some of what to expect. I also sobbed my eyes out when it came time to say good-bye to Ampersand. I love that we get a look into the future, to see how Dr. His final escape and ambiguous end was much appreciated. Alas, poor Yorick! Before reading this series I assumed Y: The Last Man: Book 5 novels by default would be heavy on action and seriously lacking in character development. Boy, is my face red. I also became addicted to the snappy dialogue that's intelligent and filled with irony, humor and pop culture references. And that action? I will definitely re-read this series at a later date. View all 3 comments. Mar 10, Richard rated it it was amazing Shelves: comix- graphix-generaldystopian-apocalyptic-fiction. Well this is it. The End. What an adventure. What a send-off. All of the storylines and every character come to a head here in an epic finale that matches the intensity of the rest of the series. Yorick and his ability to grow on you. Mann and her Y: The Last Man: Book 5 and snark. Ampersand and his knack for getting into trouble. Natalya and her accent. Alter and her steadfast dedication. And my favorite, and her ultimate badassery. I didn't realize how I attached Well this is it. I didn't realize how I attached I was to these characters until it hit me that I would have to tell them goodbye. And what a goodbye it was: a poignant, bittersweet resolution that doesn't take the easy way out, but left me totally satisfied. Definitely the best full complete comic book series I've read so far. I would easily give this my highest recommendation to anyone! Jul 01, Sarah rated it it was amazing Shelves: sci-figraphic-novels. So of course, having finished book 4, I jumped straight into book 5. This book messed me up. Major spoilers: view spoiler [ getting killed was pretty devastating. It just seemed like all the effort he spent getting to Beth was wasted. Then to not get either Beth or ? His escape scene at the end was pretty epic though.

Is there any explanation that would have been satisfactory? There was no way there was going to be a truly satisfying explanation for what started the events of this story.

  • Understanding Visual Metaphors: What Graphic Novels Can Teach Lawyers About Visual Storytelling
    UNDERSTANDING VISUAL METAPHORS: WHAT GRAPHIC NOVELS CAN TEACH LAWYERS ABOUT VISUAL STORYTELLING Lenora Ledwon ABSTRACT Effective legal storytelling requires facility with images. While law schools traditionally place great pedagogical emphasis on the power of the word, the power of the image gets short shrift. Yet, cognitive scientists have long recognized the persuasive force of images. This Article focuses on one specific type of image: the visual metaphor. A visual metaphor, like its verbal counterpart, represents one thing in terms of something else, but uses images instead of words. Graphic novels provide an excellent introduction to visual metaphors because their format depends on strong visual thematic continuity. This Article uses Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra’s multivolume graphic novel, “Y: The Last Man,” to illustrate how visual metaphors operate. By exploring visual metaphors in graphic novels, lawyers can improve their visual literacy and learn to recognize and create visual metaphors. TABLE OF CONTENTS I.

    issue four winter 2015 INCITING CHANGE: AN INTERVIEW WITH FRANK MILLER 2015: THE YEAR IN CENSORSHIP Director’s Note From the murders at Charlie Hebdo on January 7 through the barbaric persecution of international political cartoonists and the rising calls for censorship of graphic novels in the United States, the fight for free expression in comics was one of the central news stories of 2015. Thanks to the support of our contributors, CBLDF was at the forefront, fighting back when censorship struck at home and speaking out against violations of free STAFF speech abroad. In this issue of CBLDF Defender, we look back on this most eventful year.

ABSTRACT FATAL ATTRACTIONS: AMERICAN COMIC BOOKS AND THE AIDS CRISIS June 2015 Sean A. Guynes, B.A., Western Washington University M.A., University of Massachusetts Boston Advisor: Aaron Lecklider, Ph.D. Second Reader: Rachel Rubin, Ph.D. Between 1988 and 1994 American comic books engaged the politics, problematics, and crises of the AIDS epidemic by inserting the virus and its social, cultural, and epidemiological effects on gay men into the four-color fantasies of the superhero genre. As the comic-book industry was undergoing major internal changes that allowed for more mature, adult storylines, creators challenged the Comics Code Authority’s 1954 sanction against the representation of homosexuality to create, for the first time, openly gay characters. Creators’ efforts were driven by a desire to recognize the reality of gay men’s lived experiences, especially crucial in the epidemic time of the AIDS crisis.
