Just got back from Wizard World in New Orleans. ICECUBES the book “Noise Is News” was a big hit and we made lots of new fans. I want to thank all of you who stopped by the table, it was great to get a chance to talk with you.
The big news is that ICECUBES the book is now available in several comic book stores across the country!
First I would like to give a big thanks to Bedrock City Comics in Houston for featuring “Noise Is News” in all 4 of their stores! I would also like to thank Graham Crackers Comics in Chicago for carrying the book as well! And in New Orleans, you can buy the book at Crescent City Comics! This is great news for ICECUBES fans!

Nash Car.

Every now and then I’ll post something just for fun even if it’s kinda random. Here’s a 1947 add for Nash Motors. This is a beautiful example of the ‘streamline’ design style of the 30s and 40s period. A lot of trains, planes and cars had this type of design (even some buildings, ie: Chrysler Building). I think it represents a feeling of optimism, modern comfort, style and the idea of ‘going big’ that unfortunately is so lacking nowadays. Perhaps it might inspire us to dream about the past and imagine better things for the future. Nash Motors on Wikipedia.

Zine Fest Houston.

Posted on October 9, 2012 by Leroy Brown
Last Saturday I had a table at Zine Fest Houston at SuperHappyFunLand. True to the name of the venue, a good time was had by all. I got to meet the people from Blazed, CEJ from Armzrace, Jason Polland who draws Robbie & Bobbie, the guys from Brass Comics, Richy Vegas who shared his pizza with me, Gabriel Dieter who made the poster for the show, and of course Shane who founded Zine Fest Houston and Lindsey Simard who organized this years Fest. I want to thank everyone for the warm reception and friendly atmosphere. ICECUBES even won best table! Thanks guys I had a great time and it was really great to meet fellow Houston artists.

Another Original Strip on Ebay!

Posted on September 29, 2012 by Leroy Brown
***sold*** Here’s another chance to own original ICECUBES the comic strip art! This is ICECUBES the comic strip #169. This strip appears in the new ICECUBES book “Noise Is News” on page 79. Bid for it here! All of my comic strip art is done entirely by hand using pen, brush and India ink. I even do the lettering on the page. When buying original strip art remember that it oftens looks a little different from the published strip. There may be traces of blue line pencil, titanium white acrylic paint, gray pencil, glued paper and tape. This comic strip features Peckinpaw the Polar Bear, Eggman the Walrus and Nooky the Eskimo. Peckinpaw is complaining about smart phones while Nooky is ice fishing. When he hears the word ‘cheesy’ mentioned, Eggman gets a craving for pizza, which Nooky obliges by ordering on his phone. Dimensions: 5″ x 15″. Strathmore 400 2 ply vellum bristol. Acid free. Signed.

More Art!

Posted on September 20, 2012 by Leroy Brown
I’ll be selling more original art soon, so keep an eye out for it. Thanks to those of you who bought art recently. I will also be attending some conventions in October, so please try to make it by if you are in the area. My convention schedule is on the website on the left column. Thanks and see you soon!

Noise is News!

Posted on August 17, 2012 by Leroy Brown
  • What you need to know about the new ICECUBES book “Noise Is News”:
    • ISBN :978-0-615-65100-2 Size: 9.5″ x 6″ landscape Cover: 4 color / gloss lamination / 12pt Inside: 102 pages / 4 color offset / 70# Binding: Perfect bound This beautifully offset printed book contains over 170 original ICECUBES comic strips in full color. It also features extra art pages for your enjoyment! This is the very first print of the very first ICECUBES book! I will gladly autograph your copy and you can also request a limited artist edition which is hand numbered from 1 to 200 and comes bagged and boarded.
  • Why it’s so special:
    • For over a year I explored every possibility of getting this book printed the right way but was never satisfied with the quality or the price; from PODs like Lulu and Kablam, to cold calling printers around the country, to asking a print broker and talking to other comickers about their print experiences. At long last, I found this most excellent printer that did the book with the quality and craftmanship that I demanded. The hardest part was getting the book printed offset. Some of you may not know what that means but when you see the bright bold colors, the black line art, and feel the pages you will know the difference! At conventions people who have never read ICECUBES before reach for it, admire it and become new fans.
  • Why you should get one quick:
    • This is the very first printed edition. There are less than 80 copies left so act quick! Once they are gone, that’s it. If there ever is a second edition it might be an ebook. Just think, first editions of Zap Comics now sell for hundreds, or more! Zap Comics originally had 5000 copies printed. ICECUBES the book has only 300! Only 200 of them are artist edition numbered copies. So this book is already rare! If you already read ICECUBES online you are smart, buy a book now and be even more smarter! 😉

    New strips?

    Posted on August 14, 2012 by Leroy Brown
    Recently, I’m sure many of you have been wondering why ICECUBES the comic strip hasn’t been updating more often. After all, everyone likes new strips right? Believe it or not one major reason is the weather! It has been extremely hot down here in Texas (yes, the comic strip takes place in Alaska, but I live in Texas). I don’t have a working AC unit in my attic studio where the temperature is in the 90ºs. So it’s just impossible to work in there until the weather cools off. The other reason is that I put a tremendous amount of time and energy into making the new ICECUBES book. I am very proud of this book! It took over a year to get it printed the right way and everyone who owns a copy knows it’s a good looking book. My focus now is on promoting the book and getting new fans to discover ICECUBES. In order to make that happen I have been driving hundreds of miles to conventions and meeting fans one on one to show them the book. The response has been great. Check out my convention schedule and come out and say hi! I have also been planning book signings in libraries and comic book shops. (Note: If anyone would like to organize an ICECUBES book signing, by all means get in touch with me!) One thing all of you wonderful readers and fans can do to help is to buy your own copy of the new ICECUBES book! More book sales mean more income and more time for me to draw more strips! 🙂

    To all of my readers I want to say thank you! Your support means everything and keeps me going. New strips are coming I promise, just at a little slower pace for now. I hope you’ll stick with me and keep on reading ICECUBES the comic strip! Thanks!     Leroy Brown
