Friday Night Fights: Hey, pal, it's your Viking funeral

Even though I came out before the bell last week, I'm still ready to go for another round in this mighty black-and-white match-up overseen by our cosmic ring master, Bahlactus!

But as I was preparing for another brutal bout (running up stairs, working the heavy bag, chasing chickens), I wondered: Is the KFC still open? And then I thought, what would be the best way to end this match? Who could I bring in that could bring the pain? What could reach the right level of awesome?

And then I realized: I started with Boyd and Yount, I'd end with Boyd and Yount. With that in mind, I give you ...

A brief glimpse at Staple! (and Ryan Yount)

I'm working on a more in-depth post on this weekend's Staple! expo, but it was definitely a lot of fun with plenty of interesting and friendly writers, artists and other participants. The new and larger venue was an improvement, and things were laid-back and organized — it all really makes me look forward to next year.

Best of all, though, was the fact that an age-old comic industry question was finally answered: Scurvy Dogs' Ryan Yount does indeed like to party.

Unfortunately, the riddle of where he likes to party remains unanswered.
