Y: Le Dernier Homme #1
This French-language volume collects the opening chapters of Brian K. Vaughan's acclaimed series, introducing Yorick Brown, the last surviving human male after a mysterious plague wipes out every other mammal with a Y chromosome. Alongside his pet monkey Ampersand, the reluctant hero is protected by the secret agent 355 and geneticist Dr. Allison Mann as they navigate a world now ruled entirely by women. The story sets up the epic journey to uncover the cause of the catastrophe and Yorick's possible role in humanity's future.
In "No man's land," a global chain of isolated events unfolds across continents—from the Australian Outback to Tokyo’s stock exchange, from Rome’s Vatican City to a desolate nuclear power plant in Leningrad—each thread hinting at a world where humanity’s presence has vanished. Written by Brian K. Vaughan and Sophie Viévard, with striking visuals by Pia Guerra and José Marzán Jr., this issue paints a haunting, interconnected portrait of a planet gone silent. The cover, a stark and evocative piece by J. G. Jones, captures the eerie stillness of a world without people.
