I agree with you on "Testament", Keith. And yes, you *should* read "Y: The Last Man". Last issue is a gut-punch.

Re: [scifinoir2] 10 underated depictions of the apocalypse
These are some good choices. They did a remake of the Road and it is coming in a couple of months. I saw the commercial for it already. Hey! What happened to that Densel Washington movie? Also, I think there is a Day of the Trifids remake due as well.
