Stan, have you pretty much decided that the "Sparrows" story arc will end in #109?

Wow great cover ! Sensei I noticed the note at the bottom to Tom, " Tom - the fifth guy w/Usagi is a new character never been in color " Do you decide the specific colors you want each character to be or does Tom have artistic license when coloring a new character ?

Unless there is something specific, such as the colors of the Tengu, I leave the choice of colors to Tom.

Sergio has the same trust in his colorists. That is why Groo wears orange clothes.

I take it that the "fifth guy" is the mysterious samurai mentioned in 106 synopsis, isn't it?!

I hope so. Sometimes Stan will send me the B&W version, then later on the color version. Other times he sends me just the color version.

Stan could not find a B&W version of 109 just now. Hopefully soon...
