I was in that stream for a while, before my connection failed me. I got to ask some questions.
He chose the cover image to make the fact that Annie gets a haircut in this volume a secret.
He also said that the reason Jeanne could cross the Annan river was that the thing that prevented creatures from crossing was Jeanne herself, so she wasn't really bound by any such rule.

I got just over half-way through the long form version before I had to go to bed - I'm watching the rest tonight. Other points Tom made (so far):
Jeanne's arc is done. She and her lover will not appear again.
He has a definite ending planned for the entire story, but the journey there is flexible. He can bring it forward or delay it as circumstances dictate. And although he has other comic ideas, Gunnerkrigg is what he is famous for and ending it would be a big move on his part, so I don't think we need to worry about it happening any time soon.

Good god, that's gorgeous. Better than the last one, too. I really need the last few books in hardcover.

Can't wait for book 6 to be released. I have all the hard-covers so far (although I think my mom still has my 1-4 D: ). Thanks to those of you who have posted some of the questions he answered in the chat! Wish I could have been there. :) I'll have to watch the video. Also related to merch...

I just remembered another question I asked, but the audio failed me so I had to get the answer through the chat; assuming the person relaying the answer wasn't lying(and since people will be too lazy to watch through the whole thing):
I asked whether he had planned right from the start to let Mort pass on by the hands of Annie, or if that was something he chose while working through the comic.
The former was the truth; Mort the character was created with that eventual end goal in mind.
