Monday Madness / CoronaVirus Comics Y: THE LAST MAN "UnManned" Conclusion

...various seemingly-unrelated events that will (almost) all tie together by the end of this entry...
And the premiere comes full circle...
Written by Brian K Vaughn, penciled by Pia Guerra, and inked by José Marzan, Jr., this intro from Vertigo's Y: the Last Man #1 (2002) tells the story. clearly and concisely, setting up multiple plotlines for the future.
There's lots of concepts jammed into the multi-award winning post-apocalyptic 60-issue series including political conspiracies, ethical dilemma of cloning, LGBT extremists, and interracial love, among others.
Sadly, all of these concepts are still controversial.
Note the series does conclude on a somewhat happy note as humanity manages to figure out a way to rebuild, so the generation the story is set in isn't the end of the human race.
And, there's a TV mini-series now in production, soon to air on FX.
(Presuming it restarts production after the CoronaVirus pandemic ends, and reshoots almost every scene already filmed since they had to replace the lead actor...)
