cool beans, is there a chance we will get color pages again, or was that a one-time feat?

Yeahh, awesome!

Erutan, from where is your icon from? Looks like Otomo or old Urasawa.

Neat, didn't know if anyone would place it, old Urasawa it is! It's from Dancing Policeman, I bought the tankouban a while back when I found someone willing to translate older Urasawa stuff (about when MONSTER was finished up).

He's since disappeared and various attempts to get frobits to agree to a faustian translation deal have failed... but it might be seeing the light of day soon! I kind of liked the "bleeding from my head but smiling happily" feel to it and edited it out of one of my scans.

He looks more like "smiling intimidatingly" to me. ;)
Cool, so there just may be a Dancing Policeman scanlation? Wishing you the best of success there, I'd definitely read it if it comes to be.

Actually he just headbutted two people and is talking to someone, apparently unaware that he is bleeding profusely... so it isn't meant to be intimidating, more dazed I guess. And yeah, it should happen. Won't name any names / dates in case it doesn't, but it should.
