The subtitle of the "last man" is not an exaggeration. One day, every mammal on the planet with a Y-chromosome dies, except two: Escape artist Yorik Brown (a Ben Jennzer feature in the TV show) and his pet cappuccin monkey, Ampersand. Horik's father was a professor of English, hence his name (as in "Unfortunately, Poor Yorik from" Hamlet ") and his sister," Hero "(played by Olivia Tyrlby). Horik also studied English, which led to name his monkey by grammatical symbol.

It is now a world world, but old and new conflicts are still following. Losing half of the population also means critical infrastructure, such as electricity, communications and travel, decline. It is not entirely post-apocalyptic, but it is close, especially since the human race can die out in a generation.

Horik is the key to ensure that does not happen. With the Secret Service Agent 355 (Ashley Romans in the show), he first headed to Boston to find the geneticist Dr. Allison Mann (Diana Bang), who works experiments in human cloning-the self-activated mother to decide those with Y-Hromosomes.

When the samples of Mann's research are destroyed, the trio went all over the country in its California backup place and, ultimately, around the world. Horik's goal of this Odyssey is to find his girlfriend Beth, who visited Australia when the "gender" happened, just like Odysseus's monsters, to return to his wife Penelope.

"Y" is the story of finding a reason to live; the very first page of the comic book It features a woman holding a gun to her head when she realizes the world knows it's over. Horik was passive suicide before the world changed. The irony is that yes, a man spared from death was not even sure if he wanted to continue living. Can this escape an artist to get rid of those self -destructive feelings?

During its original run, "Y" attracted heaps of the award (received the "Best Continuous Series" of the Azner Awards in 2008) and the awards) and the Aizer Awards in 2008) and) and) Not only from the typical comics mediaor. The series continues to be reprinted into new collected releases, Recently as part of DC's "compact" comic book. With how popular the "Y" comic is, it's no surprise that Hollywood was interested. Then the adaptation passed more than a decade thrown into the development of hell, after a long time at the height of the "y" boom.
