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.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

ICECUBES Christmas Original Art Dear Wonderful ICECUBES Fans! I decided to create a special Christmas Comic since it’s been such an unusual year. I just wanted to thank you all for the support and love you have shown towards ICECUBES for so long. In celebration of the season I have also decided to sell the original art for this comic. It is drawn, inked and painted by hand on a 11″x17″ Canson Fan Boy blueline comic page. India ink and watercolors were used. Bluelines are showing on the original art as well as some cut and pasted paper. The lettering is also hand drawn. The price is $100 (+ shipping) and I will donate 50% of the proceeds to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. I will autograph the page and make it out to whomever you designate. Thank you again so much for being great fans and hopefully we’ll see more of the ICECUBES ‘cool crew’ in 2022!

Ha, ha, ha! 🙂 Check out this comic book cover from 1937! So similar to the cover page for ICECUBES’ first book ‘Noise Is News.’ I just saw this today and it made me smile. I had no idea I was channeling one of my all time favorites Mutt & Jeff cartoonist Bud Fischer. Oh well, great minds think alike. And take note that I only have a dozens copies of the first edition left, so get it while you can at http://www.chateaubooks.com

Tintin & Joe Pipo on Free Comic Book Day.

Posted on May 8, 2017 by Leroy Brown
Tintin by Leroy Brown Had a busy FCBD on Saturday. I went to Bedrock City Comics where I met Image Comics published authors Kody Chamberlain and Rob Guillory and I showed them Joe Pipo. Kody encouraged me to keep pitching to Image and other publishers. Bedrock City also said they like and support Joe Pipo, so this led me to think about perhaps crowd funding the first printing. What do you think? Would you support a Joe Pipo Kickstarter? Also met a great fan Adrian to give him his commissioned drawing of Tintin! 🙂 If you would like to commission a drawing just email me: icecubescomic@yahoo.com

Drawing Joe Pipo.

Posted on October 13, 2016 by Leroy Brown
ICECUBES drawing table / Joe Pipo Hi folks, lately I’ve been concentrating on my graphic novel called “The Adventures of Joe Pipo in New York.” It’s a completely different format from ICECUBES and the drawing style is a lot more detail oriented. I enjoy the challenge but it takes time! I am hoping to submit the project to publishers real soon, keep your fingers crossed. You can like & follow Joe Pipo on Facebook here: –> https://www.facebook.com/joepipocomic/
