ICECUBES the comic strip #309

Posted on January 27, 2023 by Leroy Brown

Pogo was a comic strip that I remember seeing in the papers a long time ago. Although I couldn't really understand what it was all about, I really enjoyed the drawings. Did you know that Walt Kelly worked for Disney before starting Pogo? That probably explains why his drawings are so good. The reason Pogo was confusing for a little kid was that the words were always so complicated. It was clearly directed at an adult audience (the kind that read newspapers obviously) and not kids. I learned to better appreciate it later on in life and still love the drawings.

Today's ICECUBES comic strip is a tribute to those Pogo style tongue twisters and so now you know.

No 4th of July is complete without snowballs! This stand is even ‘cooler’ than Nooky’s 😉 Just look at that kid, he can hardly wait!

Running out of ICECUBES Books!

Posted on June 6, 2014 by Leroy Brown

I’m running out of the first printing of ICECUBES the Book. A lot went at the last 2 conventions and very few Numbered Artist Editions are left. In fact I have 8 numbered books left and here are the numbers: 170 / 176 / 177 / 178 / 186 / 195 / 192 / 198. Email me with the number you want. I will sign every book! 🙂

Menil Fest 2014.

Posted on May 9, 2014 by Leroy Brown

I was really happy to be part of the Menil Fest in Houston last week. The Menil is one of the greatest free art museums in Houston and to be part of the Indie Book Fair was great. I met a lot of new people and reconnected with friends like Jason Poland of Robby & Bobbie and Shane Patrick Boyle. I would also like to thank Stacey Kirages for including some of my cartoons in the new Zine Fest Houston Compilation! 🙂

Newspaper Stack!

That’s what I like to see, a stack of newspapers featuring Dizzy Comics! Dizzy Comics is our great new independent syndicate and guild of like-minded cartoonists. Dizzy Comics is all about getting printed in more papers and being seen on more websites. We’re small and we’re indie and we’re growing! 🙂

Paul Terry was one of the most prolific cartoon creators in animation history. Everyone remembers Heckle and Jeckle and Mighty Mouse! 🙂
