Thanks Vince, I don’t normally scan the pencil of the comic, since I use real ink but this pencil was appealing and I thought if I mess up the ink at least I have the scan to prove that the original drawing was good 😉 Then I came up with the idea to animate all 3 stages.
I found this cool retro toy ad on the back cover of a Harvey Comics comic book from the ’70s. “Tournament of Thrills” and “Wild Power Spin-Outs”. Came with a “Mustang II”, Daredevil Dan, hook, thrill-bar, jump-ramp, barrels and a T-stick to rev up the car. 😀 I bet it was a bunch of fun too! Kenner always had the best cheap plastic toys and the best ads for them. Still amazes me to think that Kenner belonged to the General Mills cereal company. I always wondered who they would get to illustrate those ads. Whoever did it had to ink all the lettering and cram all that information into that drawing, not that easy!

Hello, thanks for being a 'cool' ICECUBES fan. This content can be enjoyed when you become an ICECUBES member. You can subscribe for only $1 a month and get all the great past comic strips and posts.
Check out this goofy guy that popped up while I was inking the latest ICECUBES comic strip. I was just practicing before jumping onto the strip and this guy showed up. You can see I also practiced my lettering. ICECUBES is all hand-drawn, including he lettering (which is the hardest part!) Thanks for reading ICECUBES the comic strip and remember to click on the ads, it really helps!
So this is something of a novel twist. For some reason that I can’t explain, Youtube and Google decided to lock the original ICECUBES channel. I have tried everything to get them to unlock it, to no avail. So, I finally decided to start a brand new ICECUBES video channel. The channel is called ‘Leroy Brown’ and you can find it using the handle: @icecubescomic.

Hopefully this one won’t get locked and I can resume sharing ICECUBES videos with you. My big wish is that 2023 will see a revival of activity around the strip, fingers crossed. There are things happening in the background that I can’t talk about yet but I’ll let you know as soon as I can. Thanks for being such cool fans and continuing to check in. All my best wishes for a great holiday season!

Happy New Year 2023!
Eggman and I certainly hope this year will bring more ICECUBES comic strips. If only we could find a way to make ICECUBES pay for itself. Oh, I know: please click on the ads. Every click counts! If every visitor just clicked one ad, ICECUBES would off and running. Freeze has been yelling in my ear that he wants a new ICECUBES Book to come out. I keep telling him that we still have a few copies of Vol. 1 “Noise Is News” available. It’s a beautiful offset printed book with over 100 pages in full color and because it was the very first print of the very first ICECUBES book it’s a collectible too. *Just click here to get it for only $10!
We all wish you a Happy New Year and want to say a big thanks for being cool ICECUBES fans!
