On his Bad Signal email list, Warren Ellis gives an update on the progress of his webcomics site, Rocket Pirates:
Well, falling ill almost immediately after I made the call for submissions has slowed things down a bit. As did getting vastly more submissions than I expected (and I’m still sorting
through them). Also, I’m giving a few people the time they need to get set. And I have to stab someone with a sharpened robot, too.So right now I’m looking at launching the site in mid-September, with everyone in the first wave in place.
It’s going to be a massive thing. The equivalent of a fat anthology. I don’t expect you to like everything there. That’s not how anthologies work, after all. I do, however, figure that most people will find something to love in there, and that the association of the work will lead you
to try something new.
Also coming soon: Rocket Pirate T-shirts!

Ellis falls ill just when he has a lot of work to do in SHOCKING TWIST.
