up.

15. You go into the Comic Book Deli and order "the Ryan Yount." What kind of sandwhich is it? Ryan Yount: Oh man, well, let's see...pastrami, salami, ham, bacon, turkey, jack, provolone, swiss, cheddar, mustard, deli mustard, mayonnaise, all on sourdough.

16. Tell us something you wouldn't ordinarily mention on a first date.

Ryan Yount: I enjoy listening to Neil Diamond.

17. Has there been a defining moment of your life yet? Or are you one of those dudes leading a quiet life of desperation? Ryan Yount: More like lots of little defining moments, those points in life where I've come to a crossroads and either continued on ahead or started down another path. 'Course, I'm still a young guy, and I suppose I could have a single life-defining moment. I'll let you know when it happens. Ryan Yount: Well, I definitely want to name my first son George, after my father, but only my first son. Now, I don't have any grand schemes for rev olutionary food-cooking technologies -- yet. I also haven't been the heavy weight boxing champion -- yet. 19. Have you found there to be a lot of professional sports-type trash-talk ing in comics? Do you call up, say, Mike Mignola, and tell him not to both er bringing that lame "Hellboy" stuff out onto the court? Ryan Yount: Well, I'm sure I would, if Mike and I were friends, and I had his phone number. Probably I'd do it if I just had his phone number. I used to call and harass Kieron Dwyer, but he found out what public phone booth I had been using at the bus-station and came over and punched me in the back of the head. So, now there's no trash-talking. 18. Will you name every one of your children "George Foreman"?

20. Tie it up, man. Tell us something for the kids back home.

Ryan Yount: Issue #2 of Scurvy Dogs will be at the San Diego Comic-Con, and Issue #1, for those who haven't yet seen it, will be available in the March "Previews" for order through your local comic shop. So eat your veg gies, study hard, and keep rockin' in the free world. And remember, PIRATES ARE THE NEW MONKEYS.
