Book Reviews of Y: The Last Man, Volume 9: Motherland
Book Review: Issues #49-54 of the Vaughan/Guerra series
Summary: 4 Stars
Volume 9 collects issues #49-54 of the Brian K. Vaughan and Pia Guerra series. As in the previous TPB, Guerra pencils a four-issue story arc and Goran Sudzuka pencils a pair of one-shots. In the "Motherland" segments the action alternates between a Hong Kong laboratory and rooftop and more on what caused the plague is revealed. Vaughan also progresses the Hero and Alter subplots as the characters converge on France. Issue 53 introduces a new and confusing subplot in Arlington, Virginia and Issue 54 is a filler Hollywood story. I enjoyed the main story arc more than those of previous TPBs but was disappointed with the one shots. Still, I've enjoyed this series enough to immediately order the subsequent TPB upon its release.
