The Y TV project is based on the DC Comics’ series Y: The Last Man, which ran for 60 issues beginning with an initial publication in 2002, written by Brian K. Vaughan and illustrated by Pia Guerra.
If FX gives a full season order for the new show, it will mark the first time a Y: The Last Man adaptation finally reaches an audience.
Adaptations for film and television have been attempted going back as far as 2008.
With the likes of Amber Tamblyn and Diane Lane on board, a series could be a big hit.
