Ok, ok. So I realized that strips that were formatted horizontally got fewer views and likes than the strips formatted vertically. That makes sense because most of you are viewing ICECUBES on your phones. It looked like this strip #336 was also not doing as well as I thought it should (I really like this strip!) For your viewing pleasure, I went ahead and reformatted it vertically and we shall see if it gets more views. So, to all of you phone-wallas out there, this one is for you!

My favorite cartoon is by far King of the Hill. I just love the understated tone and the rhythm of the stories. It’s not full of slap dash one liners, sex jokes or poop humor. It’s hard to write like that and I think Mike Judge of Beavis and Butthead fame created a good cartoon.

Everybody knows Hank Hill’s self loathing neighbor Bill Dauterive. The inside joke is that one of the original writers and executive producer’s name is Jim Dauterive. Here’s picture proof that there’s another Dauterive out there too! 🙂
When I’m doing a comic that includes unusual backgrounds or props I’ll go and get references to draw from. Here I needed some props for an abandoned arctic research lab. It’s always a good idea to draw from real life.
Here’s a picture of me standing next to a giant penguin! It’s a real size model of Pachydyptes the New Zealand Giant Penguin! He lived about 30 million years ago in New Zealand and was over 5 feet tall! I took this picture at the Auckland Museum in Auckland New Zealand.
