ICECUBES the comic strip #344

Posted on January 5, 2024 by Leroy Brown

Happy New Year everyone! Wow, 2024!! Hard to believe, but this will be the 16th year for ICECUBES the comic strip. I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your support for the strip. There will be some new surprises this year! For starters, I will make a lot more artwork available for purchase by collectors. Also, "The I's Have It" is now available for $1.99 as a digital download at the ICECUBES Store. Thanks to all of you who are subscribers and if you would like to be one, it is only $1 per month - just hit the Members Only! button or click here!

Well, it's late and I have to go to bed. I hope you like this week's strip. Peckinpaw is kinda sore... I had some fun with the colors again and made 2 different versions, so try to see the differences on desktop vs. mobile and tell me which one you like best.

Ok, thanks for being such 'cool' ICECUBES fans!

I Eats Me Spinach!

I ate a can of this last night and I needed it too! What with managing my databases spread over 4 computers and 10 hard drives, troubleshooting extension conflicts on my Macs, trying to revive a dead laptop and cleaning the gears of my printer, I’m totally immersed in geek hell. If only I also knew php… but I digress. As you can see, I am hard at work, fighting to bring you the best comic strip experience ever! Oh yeah and I gotta draw sometimes too…!

Dallas Webcomic Expo

Posted on August 8, 2011 by Leroy Brown

ICECUBES had a table at Strip-The Dallas Webcomic Expo on Saturday, Aug. 6. We had a real good time and got to meet some great folks. Leroy Brown drawing a commission. I drew some commissions and got to meet great ICECUBES fans. It’s really a lot of fun to meet people who read and enjoy ICECUBES the comic strip.

Brian Powers, Leroy Brown, Mark Stokes. I met fellow cartoonists Mark Stokes who draws Zombie Boy Comics (http://www.zombieboycomics.com/) and Brian Powers who draws Liltoon (http://liltoon.com/tv/) Brad Diller who draws Funday Morning Cartoons (http://cartoons.fundaymorning.com/) and Kit Lively (http://www.kitlively.com). You should definitely check out their comics.

Cosplay Cuties

Security was tight! I need to mention that I also met Hector Cantu who writes the syndicated strip Baldo, Chris Jeffery from Cartridge Comics as well as David Wilborn from Urban Jungle who very graciously introduced himself. I also want to thank everyone who stopped by the table and chatted- it was great to meet you all!

Â©ICECUBES It’s summer out there and it’s hot and dry. Be careful and remember: “Only YOU can prevent wildfires!”🙂

We’re back! :)

Welcome back friends! You surely noticed we were off the air for a short time while we changed web hosts. We are very excited to be with our new host Hostgator. I’m not trying to make an ad for them, but they have been so helpful that I just want to extend my thanks! Restoring the database meant that we used a backup so the last comic didn’t make the cut, so here it is in all it’s glory. Befittingly, the theme is happiness. Happiness for me is getting ICECUBES back up and running! Hooray!! Thanks for being patient and as we redesign the site to be even better, I hope you’ll feel the love! 🙂 Leroy Brown
