Ok, this could be a little evident. But my idea was not to go apocalyptic on the comics list, but to recommend good titles you might have not read. And this title is a really good read!
The story: one day, suddenly, all males die. All, but one, of course, which is the main character of this story. Sorry , him and his monkey.
It’s a long story, but not soooo long… should be around 60 issues or so, and it’s quite interesting. It’s been rumored to be turned into a movie sometime, so who knows… you might even be able to tell your friend you read it before the movie.
