    Concerning last cover:
    I just assumed it was Yorick messing around trying to break out a straight jacket in his old age while his kid plays with a toy monkey, which would signal a time skip to like 30 or 40 years in the future. He does have greyed out balding hair on the cover.

    That's a sound theory

    Re: things winding down

    The last few months of YTLM have been pretty depressing for me, but sometimes that's the only way you can tell a story to give it justice. For instance, I was terribly disappointed with the last 3 books of Stephen King's Dark Tower series (the novels, not the Gunslinger Born comic), but after I thought about it, I couldn't honestly come up with a better ending that made sense in the context of the story.

    I've loved YTLM ever since I saw
    Yorick's "Fuck Communism" lighter (love the Preacher reference), which I've always wanted one for myself.
    .I'll be sad to see it go.

    When you're a spy, it's a good idea to give away your trade secrets in a voiceover on a TV show.

    I've only read the first trade, but I absolutely loved it. Unfortunately, my local book store only has Trades 1, 7 and 8 at the moment, so I think I might have to wander to some nearby comic shops in search of the others once I have some cash.

    Does... does that mean
    they are pulling a St. Elsewhere on us? D:
    It is a cover, so it'll be misleading as to what the twist actually is. Still, mindbending concept.
    If by mindbending you mean terribly cliched...

    Knowing BKV, I am sure it is meant to be misleading/tongue in cheek. Like most of the Y covers.

    It'd better be, after an awesome run with Y it'd be painful to watch him screw it up with the Darker and Edgier version of "it was all a dream"

    It's a red herring, there's no way they would give that away right on the cover.

    Yorick gone insane from the shear amount of shit that just happened to him
