Will it be possible to order copies of island online if we're not able to get it in person?

Yeah, there’s sites like TFAW, that offer comic subscriptions and it’ll be available digitally too.  

I am loving the selection of artists chosen for Island. I don't really buy floppies but I am probably gonna go out to grab this whenever it drops. I do wonder though, what does this mean for Warheads in the collected book format? And the rest of the comics

Thanks, I’m really excited about the line up of artists too. Island feels like I’m getting away with something.

The idea is to have everything that is long enough in Island collected in it’s own books. Although it’s up to each creator. The next Warheads trade will be the same format as the 1st one.

When will the 1st issue of Island drop or is it too soon to say?

June.

I’ve been thinking about this movie. 1988’s Light years (or Gandahar), really worth watching if you haven’t seen it.

Previewing Emma Rios’ and Hwei Lim’s stunning 8House mini-series, Mirror:

'Emma Rios' and Malaysian artist Hwei Lim's Mirror is a story set in an isolated colony growing around a landed lab starship. This community is a safe haven in which magicians and scientists of the House of Healers experiment with the satellite's local fauna to create human/animal hybrids, the experiments a means of obtaining insight which could then be utilised to win political favour in a desperate cosmic war. The growing band of hybrids, however, want nothing to do with war or politics, and especially not with their patronizing human creators; and want only to be left to live in piece and on their own. Hwei Lim has done  an utterly breathtaking job on these pages- the colours and lines are so crisp and clear, and just take a look at those panels and layouts- the arcs and circles, that architectural design incorporated into the cutaways- seriously stunning. I can't imagine people looking at these pages and not wanting to pick this up. Very much excited for this series.'

big fan of prophet and MW! where should I get started if I wanted to check out your sexxxier work?

Thanks. There’s a bunch of my earlier porn stuff here.

And the last one I did is up here.

NBM still has copies of my Perverts of the unknown (that you can also read here) and Pillow fight— that you can get off their site. (I’m gonna eventually collect it all at Image too but it might be awhile still) 

You always talk about how great Image is, but right before your sweet 8House & Island announcements they put Brian Wood onstage to announce two new series. How can classy people like them still support him?

I do think Image is a great place. Ideally I would prefer guys like Wood and (Before Watchmen goon).Darwyn Cooke to not be invited to the party.I think Wood is dug in like a tick— he’s got guys like Ellis who will always back him with publishers.  but it is what it is. Stevenson is well aware of how I feel about it and I certainly don’t expect him to always agree with me.

.—and I don’t expect guys like Wood to be blacklisted from comics I just don’t want to have to interact with them.  

If anything The projects I’m working on, Island and 8house (and Prophet) have a lot to do with a community of peers that I can really support. It’s been really important for me to not align my name with anyone who I don’t like.

Every time I read about you or hear you in an interview, I get the impression you're a really nice and thoughtful guy. So... thanks for being that way. Or if I'm wrong, feel free to reject my compliment.

You are nice
