"journalctl -b" shows you everything that happened during your current
boot. If you are trying to find log data generated during shutdown
this probably won't give you what you want, as you probably want the
data from the previous boot, not the current one, i.e. "journalctl
-b-1" is what you want...

That said, the journal itself is also terminated at shutdown. It's
terminated quite late, but it might happen that something that also
runs pretty late isn't covered anymore. This is harder to debug, and
documented here:
