Well, here we are again at the beginning of a brand new year!
2014 holds some great surprises for ICECUBES fans and we’ll continue building on what we did in 2013!
A quick look back on the past year will reveal some pretty neat ICECUBES facts:
* ICECUBES is regularly syndicated in print in the Kingwood Monthly newspaper. I also created and edit a full monthly comics page featuring other guest artists including Mark Stokes of Zombie Boy, David Wilborn of Urban Jungle, Michael Hawkins with Jim Corn, Lonnie Easterling with Spudcomics and Kim Belding with PicPak.
* ICECUBES was featured at the awesome Comiculture Symposium at the University of Houston in Clear Lake. I participated in a live panel with James Barr creator of The Crow and ICECUBES comic art was displayed in the University art gallery.
* ICECUBES the book is in 5 comic book stores all across the country!
* I started work on a book of my earlier more ‘underground’ strips called Atomik Comix.
A zine preview was created for Houston Zine Fest and is still available for $1 + shipping.
* ICECUBES was submitted to some of the larger newspaper syndicates.
Limited Numbered Artist Edition. Here are the numbers that I still have: 54/ 55/ 57/ 58/ 59/ 170/ 173/ 176/ 177/ 178/ 181/ 183/ 184/ 186/ 192/ 195/ 196/ 197/ 198/
Very few left, hand numbered, bagged & boarded, individually personalized. No shipping until January 1st.
Bo Lumpkin was probably ICECUBES’ biggest fan. For a couple of years now he faithfully read ICECUBES and always commented on the strips. Often his comment would be the only one the strip would get. Even during lean times when it seemed all the other readers had disappeared, I could always count on Bo. I loved Bo’s comments. They were always funny, clever and most of all supportive.
I remember one time when I felt the strip was being completely ignored and the web stats were down in the low single digits, there it was: a comment from Bo! I replied to his comment:
“Hey Bo, knew I could count on you! 🙂 Iââ¬â¢m hearing crickets otherwiseââ¬Â¦ I think the internet generation is miffed ;)”
and Bo replied this:
“Crickets might be a good idea. No one seems to be bittinââ¬â¢ the other bait I keep throwinââ¬â¢ out.”
Classic Bo!
At times I can honestly say that his comments were the only thing that kept me motivated.
So for that, I can only say: “Thanks Bo! :)” Leroy Brownps: as proof of how good a friend Bo was to us webcomic artists, here’s a short list of other tributes:Life On 66Bug PuddingBearman CartoonsMy Life In The TrenchesThe Joy Of Stephen
Ok dear friends, as promised here is the on ICECUBES the Book! From now until January 1st 2014 *free shipping* on all book purchases (USA & Canada only and just $10 overseas for up to 2 books)!!
That’s right, every book comes with free shipping so you only pay $15 for a regular copy or $20 for the numbered artist edition! I only have 19 numbered edition books left! (I’ll be glad to email you the numbers, just shoot me an email at icecubescomic(at)yahoo(dot)com.) I will sign and personalize every book, no exceptions! 🙂
Artist Numbered Edition! (they come bagged & boarded)
Additionally, with every purchase of a numbered edition I’ll include a super special limited edition copy of AtomikComix! This little zine was made for Houston Zine Fest and is the prelude for a book of my early underground comics. These were $5 each at Zine Fest and you can get one for free with your purchase of a numbered edition ICECUBES book!
Hurry and get your books, the first printing of ICECUBES the Book is just about all gone!
I just want to take this opportunity to say a big *thank you* to everyone who continues to support ICECUBES and helps to keep this strip alive! You make it all happen!
More great things to come in 2014!
Merry Christmas everyone and have a wonderful New Year 2014! 🙂
