NCS Divisional Awards.

Posted on February 17, 2014 by Leroy Brown

I entered ICECUBES into the National Cartoonist Society Divisional Awards for short form online comic. Keeping my fingers crossed! 🙂

Comics Creator Caricature.

Posted on February 14, 2014 by Leroy Brown

I make funny drawings so it’s only fair that cool caricaturist Richard Muniz should make a funny drawing of me! I met Richard at a local market fair and he helped me set up my tent and was not only a great caricaturist but also a really nice guy. His drawings are great and people were loving them. I was a little jealous of how quick Richard was with the pencil. If only I could draw that quick! If you’re ever in the Houston area looking for a great caricature artist, give Richard a shout: ajcvr2000(at)gmail.com 🙂

Pencil of Nooky.

Posted on February 13, 2014 by Leroy Brown

Nooky hasn’t been in many strips lately. I think he’s sticking out the cold winter in his warm igloo. Here’s a pencil sketch of him awhile back… that’ll have to do for now. 🙂

Super Comics Contest Special Prize!

Posted on February 6, 2014 by Leroy Brown

Thomas Baer is our Special Prize winner! He wins a Limited Numbered Artist Edition of ICECUBES the comic book! Congratulations! Monday’s contest was so successful and exciting, that I’ve decided to extend it and add a special prize! Folks, this one is a little bit harder and that’s because the special prize is a limited numbered Artist Edition of ICECUBES the book! There are very few left of the original 200 numbered artist edition copies and you can win one! So to recap, we are celebrating the wonderful contribution of Belgian artists to the world of comics. Many world famous cartoon and comics characters have come from Belgium. Now that you know the answers to the first 3 questions (read Monday’s post here) try to answer these tricky ones:

These 2 famous Belgian comics characters headlined their very own popular comics magazines. What are the names of these magazines in Flemish?
and

These famous cartoon characters were all created by a group of artists who created a distinct style of Belgian comics. This style, or ‘school’ is named after which town in Belgium?
The first one who answers both questions correctly in the comments section below, wins the limited edtion ICECUBES the comic book! Good luck! 🙂 Leroy Brown

Super Comics Contest Give-Away!

Posted on February 3, 2014 by Leroy Brown

Congratulations to the winners!

1st Prize: Eddy Obomsawin

2nd Prize: Michael Pohrer

3rd Prize Louis J Gore

Great job! Check tomorrow’s update for a chance to win the special prize! Bonjour comic fans! Last week a cool thing happened at ICECUBES. The website got a bunch of visitors from Belgium! Belgium came in third place for most visits by country. That title is usually reserved for the UK or Australia, as ICECUBES is an English speaking comic. Belgium beat them this week! You may know that Belgium is the birthplace of the European School of Comics. Started just before WWII, the school flourished in the post-war period with many international comic stars. To celebrate this, I’ve decided to start a week-long contest to see who knows their Belgian comics! So here goes: be the first person to answer the challenge (one prize per person please!)
Third Prize:
Won by Louis J.! A cool ICECUBES sticker! Question: Name all the comics shown in this picture.

Second Prize:
Won by Michael Pohrer!An original signed ICECUBES drawing by Leroy Brown! Question: Name the original authors of every comic.

First Prize:
Won by Eddy Obomsawin! A signed copy of ICECUBES the book! Question: Name all the characters (including animals) in French. (For the little blue guys, the group name is fine) I will give out a bonus prize of an ICECUBES sticker to anyone who logs in from Belgium and names the characters in Flemish! Put your answers in the comments sections below. May the games begin! 🙂

Striking A Pose!

Posted on January 20, 2014 by Leroy Brown

I always sketch out difficult poses before committing them to paper. The thing you’re looking for is how to inject energy into the drawing. So imagine the characters are alive and moving around on the page. Sometimes it helps to close your eyes and picture it. Having said that, you can see that I erased plenty of times before getting it right. Don’t be afraid of using the eraser! Nobody is watching and sometimes it takes a lot of bad drawings to get a good one! 🙂 Ice cubes comic strip 224

Here’s the published comic. Note how the camera angle chopped off the legs, even though I drew them originally!

Changes.

Posted on January 17, 2014 by Leroy Brown

Take a look at what the ICECUBES website used to look like! This snapshot was taken years ago and shows just how far we’ve come. This year we are going to make even more changes so hang in there while we do some renovating! 🙂

Out With The Old…

Posted on January 16, 2014 by Leroy Brown

ICECUBES the comic strip - Peckinpaw the polar bear.

I thought you might enjoy a very early sketch of Peckinpaw done several years ago when I was just coming up with the look for the denizens of ICECUBES. He sure looks different nowadays! That’s the theme this year: a new look and plenty of new things to look at! There is a lot more coming up in the next few weeks so keep on checking out your favorite cool comic! 😉 Leroy Brown

Year In Review!

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Leroy Brown

Well, here we are again at the beginning of a brand new year! 2014 holds some great surprises for ICECUBES fans and we’ll continue building on what we did in 2013! A quick look back on the past year will reveal some pretty neat ICECUBES facts:
* ICECUBES is regularly syndicated in print in the Kingwood Monthly newspaper. I also created and edit a full monthly comics page featuring other guest artists including Mark Stokes of Zombie Boy, David Wilborn of Urban Jungle, Michael Hawkins with Jim Corn, Lonnie Easterling with Spudcomics and Kim Belding with PicPak.

* ICECUBES was featured at the awesome Comiculture Symposium at the University of Houston in Clear Lake. I participated in a live panel with James Barr creator of The Crow and ICECUBES comic art was displayed in the University art gallery.

* ICECUBES the book is in 5 comic book stores all across the country!

* The first ICECUBES comic book is almost completely sold out. (some artist editions left)

* I started work on a book of my earlier more ‘underground’ strips called Atomik Comix. A zine preview was created for Houston Zine Fest and is still available for $1 + shipping.

* ICECUBES was submitted to some of the larger newspaper syndicates.

* More original art was sold at conventions and online. There is more original art up for sale, click here!

* ICECUBES premiered 2 animated comics! Woohoo! More to come.

* Finally, a big surprise is coming in the next few weeks… so stay tuned!
Show your support for ICECUBES by purchasing one of the remaining numbered artist editions of the book.
Thanks for reading ICECUBES! 🙂 Leroy Brown
