"And I'm ex...

Even with a seemi...

In Y, there are villains called female supremacists and trans-exclusive radical feminists (or TERFs) and in the TV adaptati...
Y: The Last Manwas published by Vertigo from 2002 to 2008. A total of 13 books were published, all of which were co-authored by Guerra and Vaughan. The monthly comic itself ran for 60 issues before being reprinted in book format.
With so much material to work from—13 books!—it's totally possible that like The Walking Dead (which is the perfect example of a comic book-turned-TV-series success story) Y: The Last Mancould last longer than a single season. Still, right now, Season 1 is tapped for 10 episodes and there's no word yet on if it's been picked up for a Season 2. Clar...
