Publishers are scrambling to figure out what to do in the current pandemic. Many are delaying releases, cutting back in production, or offering incentives for stores. Today AHOY Comics announced that they would delay the publication of two of their upcoming titles in light of the global pandemic affecting businesses worldwide. The debut issue of Ash & Thorn, a story about a septuagenarian who becomes the reluctant savior of the world, will be delayed from 4/1 until 4/29. In addition, the release of Billionaire Island #2, the second issue in the darkly satirical series about billionaires escaping to a floating island, will be delayed from 4/8 to 4/15.

The move is intended to allow the series to find their audiences and to space out new releases better.

AHOY Comics also announced today that, effective immediately and for a limited time, all of the company’s trade paperback collections, with the exception of Second Coming, will be made available on comiXology for $9.99. AHOY recently joined the comiXology Unlimited, where for just $5.99 a month with a 60-day free trial.
