Ah, that is good to know.  Still not fond of the new style, from an aesthetic point of view.

Is that a volcano I see? And hydroponics?

Yep and yep Akura. Though not sure if that's a true hydroponics.

Also, steampunk dwarves, lol

I think that's just an automated sprinkler, steampunk-style.

I can easily imagine them using some form of hydroponics on a larger scale because there isn't a whole lot of land to work with.

I think these are gnomes. Weren't they going to stop at gnome island? And gnomes are often very steamish.

I wonder what the coloured squares that dot the coast in the second image are.

Perspective is tricky to judge in a stick figure medium, but they look to be similar in size to the houses in the city on the same island. If we assume they're a bit smaller (due to the city being a bit further away), they're about the right size for boathouses.

Hunh, I'm the opposite. The newer style was weird for the first few pages, but I actually like it better than the old style now.

I honestly wish Giant had stuck with the old art style.  It looked cleaner to me, and honestly, if he's going to spend three weeks on a page with two lines of dialogue?  Not worth the delay.
The only thing I'll miss are the...
...The simplicity of the stick figures. Now they're colored stick figures ._.
It seems so...uncanny? Different.
Though the other elements of the art style evolves nicely. I'll really miss the ol' black of the stick figures.

I like the characters actually having hand skins instead of black sticks.

What could it be? The corner sticking[<] out of the cover depicts Mr. Scruffy. I can only conclude that Rich has finally come to his senses and is writing a standalone novel about Mr. Scruffy and HIS[Much more important] adventures.
