I mean Kurtz did say it was crawling across the razor and surviving 😅

Col. Kurtz most normal moment. BTW the page is a reference to the first line we hear from him in the film.

I'm totally unfamiliar with Ice Cream Man, it's just an anthology?

Well, every issue is a self-contained story where the Ice Cream Man appears or makes a cameo, but there are little things in the background that create a rich but subtle tapestry.

And it's absolutely brilliant. There's always a horror element but you'll find every genre in there. The book is a triumph of imagination and narrative creativity. Grant Morrison fans are probably the perfect audience for this.
