Once enough pages are done, I'll bundle them up in CBZ and PDF format for easier offline reading. I think it would be a bit cheeky to charge for a new work from a complete unknown.
I'll happily defer to the expert on whether the artwork uses gray in the original (what would I know), and if a few sample images are released that would be great to see. Even with pure b/w images (i.e. 1-bit deep), things like scaling can benefit from greyscales, so perhaps part of my experience is that I don't have access to correctly sized images, if you see what I mean.

That aside, I'd still like to see a bigger gray depth implemented on future devices, as there are lots of other "image content" forms that would benefit from this.

I hope you will provide us the chance to acquire original, limited edition art work at a reasonable price before you become fabulously rich and famous (and your work even more so....)
