This is our beloved Island...except, without the little boy or the pedophile. That's right, our little island in the South Pacific. Except, I believe that it's literally in the South Pacific. Crazy as it may seem, I believe our Lost Island is a hybrid between the city of Atlantis and the dome used in the Truman Show. My reasons for believing this are threefold:
1. The Submarine- This is probably the most overlooked argument because it seems so simple. In theory this would be the only way to reach an underwater facility. I realize that the obvious objection is that planes, boats, and balloons seem to be viable options for transit to the Island, but if that is the case, why do the Others believe that they are now without a means of reaching the outside world. Which leads me to point 2.
2. The Plane Crash- I know that Ben is not the most trustworthy of individuals, but if we can believe that he was legitimately unaware of the coming of the Losties via plane, then we must believe that the plane found at the bottom of the sea trench referred to by Locke's father and the strange unnamed helicopter pilot is in fact real. I can't explain everything, nor will I attempt to. But simplistically, if a plane fell into the water, sank a long way, and breached through whatever this Atlantis Island is using to stabilize itself for pressure, then it might seem as if it was crashing.
Note: I can name the hole in this. The Losties have memories of sudden plane trouble and then crashing. Also, again, realistically, the plane supposedly fell apart according to Kate's vision, therefore, they would not have survived a sea voyage. But I believe there is a more supernatural explanation anyway.
3. The Weather. It is obvious by Dharma Orientation videos that weather was a part of the intended experimentation of the Island. They seem to wield control over it, as the rain is more sudden than could ever be explained normally.
There are many other things that support this theory. Ben doesn't worry that Michael, an experienced sailor could ever find his way back. In reality, survival demands that Michael and Walt would've had less than 500 miles of range before they would die of starvation. If they were picked up, satellites could find an Island, unless it was underwater.
I believe that passage to this Island demands some sort of supernatural explanation. It does seem that all who come should have died. A boat crash, a plane crash, a balloon crash, a helicopter crash. We all know most of those couldn't be coincidence. But if the residents of the Island know of only one way off it, I believe that Michael and Walt are going to be hitting the dome wall soon.

Very interesting. I like the idea of th island being under water (or perhaps under ice?).
Weird comic, dude.....
Interesting indeed. So if the plane crashed through the wall or dome or whatever into "Atlantis" (for lack of a better term), how did the hole get sealed back up? Why didn't the entire dome implode when the pressure was breached? And how was there plane wreckage on the island, but a whole plane was still found? With bodies in it? (I guess Dharma could've done it to conceal the location of the island...) How did Desmond and Naomi get there?
Sorry, lots of questions, I'm just thinking out loud here =). Also, nice Friends reference =).
