Nice inks! 
And, uhh, could you give me a little lecture on how to ink with manga studio? ^^' I mean, my lines look rough, to say the least... What settings you use? and, err, which tool? hahaha... ^^''''''

Thanks alot. I didn't redraw Tony's pages, I found the four pages I'm inking on the DC blog the source. I imported them into manga studio and inked directly on top of his pencils. Now I did make quite a few changes to the final art work so it does look different than Tony's pencils. I've always felt that a finishers job was to make the pencils look as good as they can be and if you have to fix something fix it. But here is how I did it if it helps any.
First I stared with a blank color 1200 dpi A3 sized page and I flipped it horizontally. (FYI manga studio won't do a page large enough to do a double page spread but if you turn a A3 size page on its side its pretty close to the right proportion) Then I imported the pencil art into the sketch layer, I had it set at 600 dpi gray color mode and I made the white transparent. Then I resized it and turn it from black to blue (you can do this if you go to properties) All of my inking I did on 4 layers. The first was the large panel that had batman running. The second layer had the 1st 3rd and 5th panels on the bottom row. The third layer had 2nd and 4th panels. And the last layer is all the cross hatching in the background of the big panel, I did this so I could erase the excess lines through the trees with out messing up what I inked. And I just moved around the page as I inked in black and white. If you go to my gallery I did a Batman Family piece that I uploaded in stages and that should give you a pretty good Idea of how I ink. And as for setting and tools this is more or less what I use the most. Then when I was done I just turned off the sketch layer and saved it.
Pens
G- most of the time I kept it set at .7mm but I moved it around alot between .65mm and .75mm
Kabura- set at .7mm (I use the G & Kabura the most)
Maru- set at .25mm (I used it for most of the detail and cross hatching)
School- set at .85mm
Brush- set at 1.6mm
I also used the .1, .3, .5, .8, 1 & 3 magic markets and the curved line set at .27mm and the draw rectangle tool set at 1mm
hope that helps.
