How lucky am I that David Scott Smith of Space Base 8 unexpectedly sent me this just beautiful painting of my main three guys Aldous, Shep, and Doc. Wow, I just love it. Who wouldn’t! It’s so dimensional and expressive. Now if I can only get him to send me the original!
After almost 5 years of appearing for free on the web, the very first book of ICECUBES the comic strip is finally going to be printed! The book will be awesome, 100+ pages, full color offset (not digital!) landscape format, featuring almost 200 strips with bonus pages full of behind the scenes drawings and sketches. Leroy is funding it thru Kickstarter and I’m reaching out to everyone I know to pitch in to help reach the full funding.
As you know Kickstarter will only fund the project if the total amount is reached, otherwise everyone gets their money back and the book is not funded. So it’s all or nothing! The deadline is Feb. 29. All the money raised goes straight into printing and shipping the book. Everyone who pledges gets rewards starting at $5 on up to $100. $15 is the base price for a numbered copy of the book and $25 for a signed copy. You can pre-order your copy for a dollar off the cover price before Feb. 29 here.
Well, Happy New Year everyone, Thanks for visiting and leaving all your comments in 2011, I hope to have a lot of fun with the strip in 2012 so please come back and let me know how it’s going! Thanks for being patient with the one a week format over the last two months, am still not ready to jump into three days a week but I’m uping the updates to twice a week; Monday and Friday. Monday may become Tuesday, not sure yet, but for now it’s Monday and Friday.
Had a Great time talking to Brian Dunaway, Joel Duggan, and Matt Forcum at Comic Coast to Coast have listen, enjoy and hear me mumble my way through the conversation.
