Book Reviews of Y: The Last Man, Volume 6: Girl on Girl
Book Review: Weakest Since "One Small Step," But Still Some of the Best Stuff Around
Summary: 4 Stars
Brian K. Vaughan continues to churn out awesome volume after awesome volume of "Y: The Last Man." This trade paperback consists of the four issue "Girl on Girl" story arc (that features Yorick, 355, and Dr. Mann aboard a ship that is in big time conflict with a submarine that is a bit too close for comfort) and the one-shot "Boy Loses Girl," which gives us an update on Beth's situation.
Every since the Safeword arc, "Y: The Last Man" has pretty much been solid gold through and through. So when I say that this TPB is the weakest volume in the series since the third book, that's really not a negative remark, because this was a really, really entertaining book. I wouldn't mark it as high as "Safeword" or "Ring of Truth", which contained some of the best comics I've ever read, but this is still way-above-average stuff.
I wasn't in love with the story of the four-issue "Girl on Girl" arc, but it was good enough to thoroughly entertain. But then, in the last issue of this TPB, Brian gives us a non-linear, dream-like, flashback-heavy story featuring Yorick's girlfriend Beth that gives us a lot of necessary insight into her character. I'm loving Vaughan's one-shots, because he really knows how to pack an emotionally powerful story into twenty-two pages better than anyone else.
