Description: FIRST ISSUE SPECIAL! Step back into the world of ICE CREAM MAN with this special edition of its first ever issue! Presented in stark black and white, the pages of this inaugural comic book confection are tucked behind something truly special: a “hidden” treatment of the original cover art…which uses focal decoder technology to make the Ice Cream Man disappear! But don't worry, sweeties. To bring him back, simply grab your included Lookety Split Decoder Lens and unlock the original cover art…now with an added sprinkling of secret messages and pictures! It’s comix cover-acrobatics as you’ve never quite seen before! And lest we forget, ICE CREAM MAN #1: CHOCOLATE / VANILLA TWIST also boasts remastered lettering by Team ICM stalwart Good Old Neon…and—gasp!—a BRAND NEW ICM short story from the entire team! It’s a celebration of ICE CREAM MAN befitting its legacy: weird, inexplicable...and cool as all-get-out. Grab yours before it’s gone, and get ready for the heady, steady march to Issue #50! Just like that!
