Hydra on the Pier: Comic Clash

A towering hydra with multiple snarling heads rises from the storm-tossed sea, sprawled across a weathered wooden pier. In bold comic-book style with thick black ink lines, dramatic perspective, and strong halftone shading. Night rain slicks the planks, neon reflections from a distant city glow on the water, and waves crash against pilings. The hydra coils around the posts, each head with a unique color accent (emerald, cobalt, crimson) and threatening expressions. Foreground close-up of one head in dramatic foreshortening, other heads looping overhead, action lines zipping across the panel, and speech-bubble-ready energy. The scene feels like a high-stakes climactic panel, dynamic composition and cinematic lighting.
