ICECUBES the comic strip #303

Hmm, what's going on here? Has Peckinpaw decided to draw a strip of his own? I have no idea what's on his mind. I guess we'll have to see how this strange turn develops.


I just want to take a minute to thank all you ICECUBES fans for still tuning in after a rather longish hiatus. Hopefully, this is the beginning of a new chapter in the adventures of Peckinpaw, Freeze, Eggman, Nooky and the others. For this to work I have made some changes to the format of the strip. Since you are probably watching on a phone, ICECUBES is now in beautiful Vertical Vision©! The website is undergoing some radical changes too. I hope you will like the new experience and if you do, please consider supporting the strip. You can do so by simply clicking on the ads you see on the website. That really helps! Leroy Brown

Joe Pipo

The Adventures Of Joe Pipo Hey ICECUBES readers! Long time no new strips I KNOW!! So sorry. It’s been a long summer and I truly needed some time to spend with my family and also work on other projects. The main project is ‘The Adventures Of Joe Pipo’ a graphic novel idea that I have had for a long time. I will be pitching it to publishers in the next few weeks with the hopes of getting the first book out within months. Making ‘Joe Pipo’ is fun but a lot of hard work too since the writing and art style are very different from ICECUBES. I will update you as I go along in this quest to finally make this book happen. Thanks for being fans of my work and keep your eyes out for an ICECUBES surprise soon too! 🙂 Leroy Brown

Bullwinkle.

bullwinkle-sm Here’s something kinda ‘cool’. I came upon a Rocky and Bullwinkle storyboard online at Heritage Auctions. It’s really neat to see how they put ideas together for that great cartoon. It’s episode #67 called “The Overland Express” from 1962.

A Great Story.

ICECUBES Steve Barr Cartoons Paris, the kid in the picture, got an autographed copy of “THE i’S HAVE IT!” and a hand drawn sketch card featuring Peckinpaw. But that’s just part of the story. Paris is in the hospital waiting for a transplant. Steve Barr, who is a cartoonist also, is the one who made the pledge on Kickstarter for a copy of the new ICECUBES comic book. I had no idea at the time, but it turns out that Steve Barr runs a really neat cartooning program for pediatric patients at hospitals. He gives kids free cartooning classes, art supplies and copies of his own great cartoon books. Little did I know that he was buying the ICECUBES book for Paris. In fact the way this Kickstarter was shaping up, I wasn’t even sure the book was going to get funded at all. When I launched the Kickstarter last May I worked hard to make the project videos good and was really proud of the book and the poster, but I didn’t know what the response would be. I was hoping for a run away hit of course, but after the first week it looked like the whole thing was falling apart. At that point I started feeling very sorry for myself. I was also a bit angry. I even wrote a concession speech, trying to explain why we had failed and what a shame it was to not get this book published. But in the middle of the night, I read an anonymous tweet that said something like: ‘Losers look for ways to deal with their feelings, winners look for ways to fix whats broken.’ ICECUBES new book kickstarter Right then and there I decided I would at least do everything I knew to try to get the book funded so that in the end whether it made it or not I could feel good about myself. And so I started a media blitz. I am sure you all got the emails and updates! Some even unsubscribed, but not many. If you look at the graph, things started drastically turning around close to the end. In fact, we went from 40% to fully funded in three days! It was a wild ride. On the last day, with two hours left to the Kickstarter, we still were not 100% funded but I needed to go to a meeting and couldn’t stay and watch the finale. When I got home that night my wife told me we had made it! The book was 100% funded! And the very last pledge came from Steve Barr!! The great thing is that I had promised an original drawing to whomever had the pledge that put us over the top. Steve had no idea. So Steve got the special prize and it couldn’t have gone to a better person. Isn’t that a great story? Thanks so much for being fans and letting ICECUBES be a part of other people’s lives. 🙂 Leroy Brown
