Lizard Miner: Comic Book Hero in a Mine

A bold, high-contrast comic-book illustration of a smart green lizard in a rugged miner helmet with a flickering lantern, deep in an underground mine. Thick black ink outlines, dramatic shadows, and halftone dot shading. The lizard is in a dynamic action pose, mid-swing with a pickaxe as dust and rock shards spray around. Surrounding elements include wooden tunnel supports, a rusted mine cart on rails, rough stone walls, and torchlight. Color palette of earthy browns, slate greys, rusty copper, and emerald green highlights. Add motion lines and stylized sound effects like WHACK! and CHINK! in bold lettering. Mood is pulp-adventure with superhero energy; composition from a dramatic diagonal angle with a cinematic wide shot.
