ICECUBES the comic strip. #0291

Posted on April 21, 2016 by Leroy Brown

Speaking of technology, did you know that you can navigate through all the past ICECUBES comic strips on the website by simply using your arrow keys? Try it! Just tap the back arrow and watch last week's comic pop right up! If you think that's amazing, you're right and it's all in large part thanks to a guy named Philip Hofer, otherwise known as Frumph. Back in the day when I decided to put ICECUBES online, I had no idea how to design a website. So I did my best to cobble together a botchy WordPress site. Little by little, through intensive research I finally came across ComicPress. ComicPress was a way to publish comics that could be read online in an intuitive, user friendly way. Setting it up wasn't easy especially since I wanted to customize my page. That's when I reached out to Comicpress's creator Frumph. Lo and behold he didn't hesitate to teach me all kinds of things about php, css and sundry variables that would allow ICECUBES to end up looking the way it does today. Over the months and years Frumph was always there to help with coding. Recently he helped me with a new comics project I am about to launch. So I decided to thank him in this post and point out that he now has a Patreon account where you too can get help with your comic site.

Percy The Flying Chicken, Again.

Posted on April 5, 2022 by Leroy Brown

Percy #2 reminder — Percy’s Plane has a Hiccup!

Percy The Flying Chicken now has his own page! You can go to it by clicking on the picture of Percy having mechanical difficulties with his plane. What do you think of the new strip? Does it merit its own page yet, after only two short strips? We’ll see I guess. In any case you can support Percy The Flying Chicken and ICECUBES by clicking on the ads!

Percy The Flying Chicken by Peckinpaw

So he did it. Peckinpaw really did it. He finally created his own comic strip called Percy The Flying Chicken. What do you guys think? Do you think Peckinpaw has a future as a cartoonist? Leave him a comment. (Psst, he really needs to be encouraged, he is very shy!) Stay tuned and perhaps Peckinpaw will surprise us with even more comics. Please click on the ads. Every click counts!

Richie Rich Likes Sledding Too!

Richie Rich cover — Richie Rich Cover Sled Ride

Here’s another sledding comic book cover. Even Richie Rich is getting in on the fun! I never knew how popular this kind of cover was. Just like the inside cover for ICECUBES the book Vol. 1. There are still a very few copies left of the first edition of “Noise is News” that you can buy from the ICECUBES store, click here<<

Master Comics Weird Cover – Retro Comics

Posted on February 15, 2022 by Leroy Brown

Can anyone please tell me what Master Man is doing here? I just… It seems he is on some sort of super unstable looking skis and is tossing a mine???? But I still don’t get it. Wow, comics were sure weird back in 1940. I guess they still are nowadays, just more violent and bloody. So much for the comics code, right? Well at least ICECUBES is pretty tame, as long as Freeze doesn’t get carried away. I am working on the website redesign and fixing all the bugs. One thing I noticed is that the feed doesn’t seem to be working. I’ll keep you posted. In the meantime you can support the new redesign by clicking on the ads (it really helps!)

The New ICECUBES Website.

Posted on February 3, 2022 by Leroy Brown

Designing a new website is a struggle. I feel like Tarzan in this Tip Top Comics cover, fighting with the giant crocodile. I hope you will really enjoy the new layout and especially how good it will look on your smart phones! We’ve instituted a new Subscriber Members Only Space! For only $1 a month you get all the great classic ICECUBES strips and behind the scenes blog posts, including special bonus prizes and early notifications of contests, plus so much more. I am hoping this space will become a real fun area where we can share what we love about ICECUBES! You can try for free for one week just by clicking here:

The best way to support the comic is to simply click on the ads that appear on the website. It is free and it totally supports ICECUBES. So, thanks for being great fans and look out for some big changes around here. 🙂
