Society in Crisis > Y: The Last Man

Y: the last man. Brian K Vaughan, Pia Guerra, and José Marzán jr, 2002-2008.

Butler PN6728.Y2 V38 2003 v. 1

What happens to social structures when every mammal on earth with a Y chromosome dies—with the exception of a somewhat goofy amateur escape artist named Yorick and his pet monkey, Ampersand?  When all the men in government and in industry, when all the male breeding livestock, are dead?  How does society reinvent itself?
