This comic gets better as it goes on. We are 2 years post man killing plague, and we finally get some answers about Yorick and why he and Ampersand were the only males who survived. The explanation was so dumb but so funny and fitting for the tone of the story, and I liked how it made Yorick reframe his whole mindset on his purpose and why he was the one chosen to be the last man alive. It was also interesting to see Yorick confronted for the first time with the reality that there is a chance Beth wasn't still alive, and that realization in a way made all his flings with random women throughout the series make more sense. It was annoying at first but realistically I think the last man alive would totally hook up with a bunch of hot women he meets along his travels, in a committed relationship or not. The other interesting part was the development between 355 and Dr. Mann, which I saw coming but didn't expect to play out the way it did. I hope they have more positive development going forward and we get to see both of their backstories. The reappearance of Beth was great too though and I am eager to see what happens with her in the next part.
