About the Author
Mike Jones was born in Roosevelt Roads, Puerto Rico March 24, 1975. The son of a Navy Journalist, he spent much of his youth somewhere other than the States. Maybe it was the constant moving (or perhaps too much sugar on his Cheerios at an early age) that prompted him to take to pen&paper like soon-to-be-roadkill takes to the open road. After enlisting in the Navy himself in 1996, Mike was transferred to Keflavik, Iceland. While serving in Iceland, Jones developed a collection of Navy-specific comics featuring a hapless Sailor with horrible dental work. The U.S. Navy magazine "All Hands" responded enthusiastically to the idea and began publishing "Ricky's Tour" in February 1999. By 2003, "Ricky's Tour" became a regular feature in numerous military publications, including the Stars and Stripes.
