Chocolate, vanilla, existential horror, addiction, musical fantasy...there's a flavor for everyone's misery. 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 PRIN more

    Bizarre, thought-provoking, and downright creepy at times! I'm very keen to learn more about the titular character, with these first four issues only supplying a very gentle drip feed. I think the art complements/augments the perverse scope of the stories being told, even though I wouldn't say I'm a huge fan of it. Overall, I recommend this to anyone with a taste for the offbeat, or just looking for something to get them in the spirit of Hallowe'en!

    I expected something great and instead got...vanilla. Hated this book and the reviewers that way oversold it (shame on y'all). Even though it was a quick read, it was a real chore to even endure. I could tell right away that it was nothing special. The story was weak. The art was weak. The characters uninteresting. I'd be embarrassed to even put this book on one of my shelves. There are some good horror-type stories to come out in the past year or so worth spending your money on ("Stray Dogs", "Did you hear what Eddie Gein Done?", "Something is Killing the Children", "Monsters", and "the Nice House on the Lake").

    Boring and pointless stories, lame characters... Actually there is nothing happening in these stories... The art is not bad, but the rest of the book is waste of time. I can't understand why this comic book was popular and how did some people love this...
