Laugh, Me Hearties!

Scurvy Dogs #1-3

Scurvy Dogs #1-3

Creators: Andrew Boyd and Ryan Yount

AiT/PlanetLar

32 pages, B & W, $2.95

So? Johnny Depp's turn as Jack Sparrow turns out to be only the second-most funny fictional pirate tale of 2003, thanks to the hilarious antics of Scurvy Dogs. Boyd and Yount (whose motto is "pirates are the new monkeys") take a batch of stereotypical pirates and sets them down in contemporary times, where searching for doubloons sometimes means working at the local fried fish shack, and a boatload of Tang is a treasure worth fighting for. The laughs are rapid fire and the stories -- like great animated short films -- don't overstay their welcome. The only thing the three issues released so far lack are covers that convey the comedy inside. Fix that, and this should fly off the shelves. Grade: A

Scurvy Dogs #1 was definitely the best find of 2003's APE convention. That's where I ran into these jokers. They've kept the antics going through 3 issues and have been thoroughly entertaining. I loved these comics enough to rename my 2 sons, Ryan and Andrew, after these 2 clowns! I also enjoyed Ryan's collaboration with Brian Wood in the upcoming Trashola #3. He's not a one hit wonder!

Vitamin B is a complex of eight water soluble vitamins ,
active in cell metabolism . The name arises because it was
once considered a single vitamin, much like Vitamin C or Vitamin D .
Since later research has shown it is in fact a complex of chemically
distinct vitamins that happen to often coexist in the same foods, the
name has gradually declined in use, being replaced by the generic term
"the B vitamins" , the vitamin B complex , or by the specific names of
each vitamin.
Vitamin C is a nutrient required in very small amounts to allow a range
of essential metabolic reactions in the body. Vitamin C is principally known
as a water - soluble anti-oxidant and has been found to prevent scurvy . It is
also known by the chemical name of its principal form, L-ascorbic acid or simply
ascorbic acid . The guidance provided by the United States of America and Canada for
Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) recommends 90mg per day and no more than 2g per day (2000mg/day).
The article on ascorbic acid contains information on its chemical properties. This article describes
its biological functions, discovery and the continuing scientific debate on how it is
used by society, including its widespread application in doses larger than the officially
recommended upper limit.
