If you're curious how I color my comics, here is a little overview. Unlike Hacheeachkee, I do not shade the original ink drawings with grey-marker, instead they're only outlines.
I use photoshop, scan in the ink drawing, blast up the contrast using Levels, select with the wand tool or lasso and make separate layers, primarily multiply layers, but I also experiment with layer properties to get certain effects like the red around the cuts and the white fog blending into the hands. How I keep shading within their boundaries is that I use multiple clipping masks on top of a primary selected layer (like Sage's hand).
