Prompt

A single panel from a 1950s comic book: a crowded parking lot of period cars with a small figure running between them, drawn with bold black ink outlines and dramatic low perspective. Flat colour applied as coarse Ben Day dot screens in limited inks, registration drifted so the colour sits slightly off the line. Printed on cheap yellowed newsprint with visible paper fibre and ink spread. Staged dynamic poses, more incident than the panel can comfortably hold.
