"RAINBOW SPRINKLES"
The second installment of this syrupy series of singular stories! Here, the lives of two very different kinds of opioid abusers intersect. But at whose behest? (I think you know the answer....)

    Comics: The Gathering - Nathan Koffler Feb 21, 2018

    I was very excited for the second issue after reading and loving the first, and this team has absolutely delivered. It captures the unnerving feeling of the first while also being different. This whole team is very talented and I'm once again very excited for the next issue because this issue was absolutely fantastic. Read Full Review

    If issue #1 grabbed our attention, then issue #2 certainly holds it tightly. This story doesn't deviate into different stories, rather it holds one throughout. Watching Karen and Jim go from a love struck couple to only the high mattering is heavy. The team leaves nothing on the cutting room floor. It serves to make this read all the more gripping.

    By the end of this, Ice Cream Man#2 delivers even with the absence of our title character. Read Full Review

    Multiversity Comics - Gustavo S. Lodi Feb 26, 2018

    The best type of second issues, where a series' statement is made clear and where script and art are fused to deliver an excellent story. "Ice Cream Man" is one to watch. Read Full Review

    Comic Crusaders - Brax Feb 22, 2018

    Martin Morazzo has a visual knack for depicting Prince's weird, horrifying and somehow fleeting world of small town Americans steeped in a fantasy gothic swirl of death, decay, and human destruction. The series may not end up being as dark (and maybe depressing for some) as issue #2 is, but it has certainly established its capacity to comfortably live, breath, and die in the darkest corners of this strange world. 4/5.

    Weird Science - Andrew McAvoy Feb 24, 2018

    Another good installment, and its clear from this issue and the level of distance it places between the story in issue one and this tale that the writers are going to be working across a wide canvas with this title. It was an enjoyable issue and continues a solid start to the series. Read Full Review

    The Brazen Bull - Charlie Chipman Feb 21, 2018

    Ice Cream Man #2 is a well-written and well-illustrated comic book that, despite my merely satisfactory score, is worth reading. Issue #2 simply doesn't work as well or hit as hard as its predecessor. You can bet that I am going to read Issue #3; Ice Cream Man deserves a second shot. Read Full Review

    Comics Bulletin - Kristopher Grey Feb 27, 2018

    In issue #1, the narrator quoted, Theres a flavor for everyones suffering. This quote catches the overview of the series perfectly. Each issue gets a different title representing a delicious flavor of ice cream, while also playfully contradicting the dark subject matter. Every issue is a one-shot of different people with different issues, except for one common denominator: the Ice Cream Man. Read Full Review
