Hot Air Balloon Over Foggy Victorian London

An epic single-panel illustration in classic comic book style: a colorful hot air balloon with patchwork panels rising above fog-shrouded Victorian London. Cobblestone streets, gas lamps, horse-drawn carriages, and distant chimneys and Big Ben loom in the background. Thick black ink outlines, bold shadows, and halftone shading give a vintage comic feel. Dynamic action lines show ascent; include speech bubbles and ornate caption boxes with Victorian typography. Warm sepia and brass tones with hints of emerald green create a print-era mood.
