For a book that is mostly talking, a lot of people die in this one. Actually thanks to a flashback of Beths Aviation mistake an entire plane full of people bite the dust. Any who, the main focus of this issue is really just a conversation between Yorrick and this young lady who has the same name and bears a strong resemblence to his girlfriend in the out back. Yeah, you can probably guess what happens, and it does. Okay, as a side note, I have to say I am not sure I buy the whole in a world without other men, he never got it on until now thing. I guess maybe since really they were trying to but not doing a very good job of avoiding real contact. Still it made for a very good issue.
