POLL: The Shepherd's Sword, Volume 1 (Patreon)

I'm in the pre-press stages of putting together chapters 1-5 of The Shepherd's Sword, along with some bonus material at the back end. It's looking like it will be ~140 total pages! This will be the first of two volumes for this whole comic. Up until now I've been printing The Shepherd's Sword in two chapter zines in black and white. Everyone who has supported the series by picking up these zines in bookstores and at conventions has helped me continue the series, and I am so grateful.

Now I'm faced with a decision, and I'd like to hear your input!

Question: Would you rather a full color* $25-30 (USD) book or a greyscale $15-20^ (USD) book?

*full color, acknowledging the first chapter is mostly in black-and-white, but the rest of the story becomes more colorful^ prices subject to change in this foolish country, but this is the general price range you'd expect to see

I know what I'd like personally (I want to print in color) but if the price changes the appeal enough, I want to hear from you!
