Feel-Good Fix In Four Colours

I enjoyed the first Y: The Last Man trade paperback so much that I bought the second and third volumes today, while picking up the week's regular dose of escapism. I get just a little bit giddy thinking about how much I'm looking forward to reading more Y, considering how good the first installment was. The series that it reminds me of the most is Preacher, because of its irreverence, crisp writing style and clean artwork. If what I've read so far is representative of the whole series, then it's probably better than just about anything coming out right now. I love when I find something like that.

I also love that I can still get excited by a great bit of comic book storytelling.
