Where it came from
Y: The Last Man #9, titled 'Safeword,' was published by DC Comics' Vertigo imprint in 2003. It serves as part of the initial 'Unmanned' story arc of the critically acclaimed series created by writer Brian K. Vaughan and artist Pia Guerra. The series explores a post-apocalyptic world where a mysterious plague has eradicated every mammal with a Y chromosome, with the notable exceptions of Yorick Brown and his pet monkey, Ampersand.
The issue features artwork by Pia Guerra and ink work by José Marzán Jr., with cover art by J.G. Jones, who was responsible for the series' distinctive, evocative cover aesthetic. The narrative continues the tension of the protagonists' journey across a decimated United States, highlighting Vaughan's penchant for blending dark humor with social commentary. Upon release, the series was praised for its sharp character development and unique premise, eventually becoming a staple of modern graphic literature.
