The last man on Earth can be a real moron sometimes. I was glad to finally see a little of what's happening with Beth, but the ship vs. submarine storyline mostly felt like filler until they get to Japan. The 355 and Dr. Mann business came out of nowhere, at least 355's side of it. There and gone, apparently just for the heck of it. And the business with the swashbuckling captain? Irritating. What was with the love declaration towards the end, anyway? Was he supposed to be in love with the captain?

Anyway, I still want to see how it ends, but this series is kind of hit or miss for me. ( )

Magical boat ride. :)

This volume isn't so much edifying as it was adventuresome. Stowing away, getting involved in boat intrigue, drug smuggling, Australian navy, blood, death, and destruction. But what really is interesting about this one is the characters. There's something really fascinating about that captain. What an odd duck. :)

And the last bit? The one about Beth still in Australia? What is she ON? Crazy! :) :) ( )

As other's have pointed out in their reviews, the highlight of this collection is the last issue, "Boy Loses Girl". It's nice to have an issue dedicated Beth, and the art is fun, with the switch to old school style dot colouring for part of it.

The rest of the trade is filler, but entertaining filler, with swashbuckling pirates on the high seas. ( )
