Written by Steven T. Seagle Art by Becky Cloonan Cover by Frank Quitely YOU ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR FIRST TIME... Adam Chamberlain is a 20-year-old youth minister, a best-selling author, and most important, the head of a rabid national virginity movement. But practicing virgin or not...Adam is about to lose it. Just a few weeks shy of marrying the girl of his dreams ? the only woman God has said he can ever know sexually ? Adam's fate, future and sex life are cast in direct opposition with God's Word. Like Y: THE LAST MAN, the series follows one man's dark quest into unknown territories ? geographically and emotionally. A shocking terrorist act casts Adam adrift in exotic locales not so easily managed by a slick image, a clever comeback or the Good Book. Adam is forced to confront head-on the very rifts we all feel between our carnal desires and whatever higher power we answer to. Will Adam's first time be his last? Featuring the deft, cutting edge writing skills of seven-time Eisner Award nominee Steven T. Seagle (the nationally acclaimed IT'S A BIRD...) and the frenetic, high-contrast art of two-time Eisner Award-nominated artist Becky Cloonan (Demo, Wizard's "Best Indie Book" for 2004), AMERICAN VIRGIN will be previewed in Y: THE LAST MAN #41 and includes a bonus interview with the creators. Erotically charged covers for the series will be created by the inimitable Eisner Award-winning artist Frank Quitely (WE3, ALL STAR SUPERMAN). On sale March 8 ? 32 pg, FC, $2.99 US ? MATURE READERSEdited by Shelly Bond Cover price $2.99.
