ICE CREAM MAN is a genre-defying comic book series, featuring disparate “one-shot” tales of sorrow, wonder, and redemption. Each installment features its own cast of strange characters, dealing with their own special sundae of suffering. And on the periphery of all of them, like the twinkly music of his colorful truck, is the Ice Cream Man—a weaver of stories, a purveyor of sweet treats. Friend. Foe. God. Demon. The man who with a snap of his fingers—lickety split!—can change the course of your life forever.
Written by W. MAXWELL PRINCE (ONE WEEK IN THE LIBRARY), with art by MARTíN MORAZZO (SNOWFALL, GREAT PACIFIC).
Collects issues 1-4.
"Don't let the bright colors and happy smiles on the cover fool you-this comic is an anthology horror series and it's downright terrifying. We loved it like we love mint chocolate chip ice cream, which is to say we loved it a lot." -Nerdist
“This series is an achievement in design and imagination, and it is incredibly good.” -The Oregonian
“Prince is a master at clean, sharp dialogue, filled with dry humor and a heavy dose of existential dread.” -Rogues Portal
“I felt like I was reading Willy Wonka meets The Howling, which would honestly be one of the most epic mashups in comics.” -Horror News Network
"Prince's work ups the ante with a precisely-crafted page-turner, sporting crisp line work by Morazzo and the dreamlike colors of O'Halloran." —Publishers Weekly
“Taps into the center of the Venn Diagram of our collective nightmares. It's also a seriously fun mash-up.” -Newsarama
