- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).

Let's assume that they should have colours and that the three colours picture here are the correct ones, then, IMO, Ro should be red and carrying a rock, Sham should be yellow and carrying the scissors, and Bo should be blue and carrying the paper.
It's not clear who is who here, but they don't fit with my colour-item pairings.
Reasoning: Sham is vaguely like French "jaune" which is yellow. B and P are related sounds. There's a bit more to it but the rest is mostly obvious.
