Summer!

Hey friends! Here's a quick drawing I did while sitting at my table at a comic convention recently. I was inspired by the hot summer we're having. Speaking of temperature, some cool things are happening for ICECUBES. This September I will be part of a comics symposium hosted by the University of Houston-Clear Lake. It should be a lot of fun with great art and great talks by fellow cartoonists. Also premiering this summer is the Happy Comics comics page appearing in print in the Kingwood Monthly newspaper, featuring ICECUBES, Zombie Boy, Urban Jungle, Jim Corn and Spudcomics. It's great to see some 'cool' comics in print for the first time! So sit back and enjoy the warm weather and watch for more ICECUBES news coming real soon! :) Leroy Brown

Moon Drawings: Part 1.

Recently I did a strip that was a little out of left field. I had the idea for a long time and didn’t really know how I was going to illustrate it. So I decided to do a lot of preliminary drawings to see if I could pull it off. I really like the result and so I thought I could share some of the process with you this week. First drawing: crater study with brush and ink. © Leroy Brown View the comic here:

    Cool Drive-In!

    We found an old fashioned drive-in to go to. It was lots of fun and they had pretty awesome paintings on the side of the food building… thought I would share. 🙂 Mr. Soda Pop!

    Comicpalooza!

    We had a great time at Comicpalooza 2011 in Houston, Texas! I got to meet some talented artists and comic insiders including Bob Layton (Iron Man) and Don Kramer (Wonder Woman). Boy if I had more disposable income I would have definitely scooped up some original art! Here are some candid pics from Comicpalooza. 🙂 cp04 Cosplay contest.
