Super-Vixens: Agent 355

355

But of course, my favorite heroine in Y THE LAST MAN just has to be Agent 355, the heart and soul of the strip, the woman who was everything from bodyguard to conscience to Yorick!

 When we are first introduced to 355, she is a hard-a-nails kick ass government working on a mission in some third world country, but once she is assigned by the governor to protect her son, the last living male on the face of the earth, we slowly get to see a multitude of different facets of her personality.

As  the relationship between 355 and Yorick develops and become more than bodyguard and bodyguardee, her character is slowly fleshed out ( and those flashbacks of 355 from childhood to rookie agent and beyond are by FAR my favorites in the book!) and you realize she’s more than just a kick ass chick- she’s  caring and compassionate, and by the time the story is winding down, you aren’t surprised to see that the two have developed feelings for each other as well!

 At the end of the mission, we see 355  all dolled up and feminine, folks, this scene is what I was waiting to see throughout the whole strip, though I didn’t know it at the time!
I was like, “WHOA! Check out 355- she’s so…pretty!” When you see Yorick finally meeting up with her, and 355 looking so damn great, you really are aching for these two to get together, though fate has other plans for the couple.

When the strip ended I was like “Gah! I wanted MORE stories featuring 355…how could they DO this to me?!”
