Kabooooom - Roy Buckingham
May 08, 2019An odd mix of space opera, Silent Running and 2001: A Space Odyssey, the last remaining human is seen on what seems like an impossible mission. A cautionary tale of where we possibly may be heading and what our future could become, while teasing us more about The Ice Cream man's true purpose in the universe. This book is uniquely memorable and unsettling, in all the right ways. Read Full Review

Jun 01, 2019Ice Cream Man works like a great episode of The Twilight Zone. Although there are some ongoing elements that long time readers will appreciate, you can jump into this book at seemingly anytime and get a creepy story that's sure to send a shiver down your spine. This comic is consistently weird and disturbing. Read Full Review

While it isn't as good as the previous issue, I still enjoyed this. I hope this series can go back to how consistently great it was early on.

I know the third issue of this series took the book into more of a sci-fi direction, but it's still weird to see a straight-up sci-fi story in this series. In any case, I thought this was good. Not as good as it could have been, which I, unfortunately, think is the case with a lot of issues in this series, but definitely still entertaining for what it was. That said, the ongoing story of this book has been a bit odd, in terms of its execution. Kind of stop-and-start. The last two issues felt largely disconnected from them, with #9 being all about it and this issue bringing it back at the end. It's especially strange with #8's ending, also.

This wasnt bad. The story itself was entertaining but is this book that should be going the route of a backstory. I prefer just the single issues.
