Librarian in Fogbound Victorian London Comic Style

In a Victorian London library, a librarian stands among towering oak shelves filled with dusty tomes. The scene is drawn in bold comic-book style with thick ink lines, dramatic high-contrast shadows, and halftone shading. Gaslight from tall windows glows amber, dust motes swirl in the air. The librarian wears a high-collared frock coat, waistcoat, and monocle, with a pocket watch chain. Their dynamic pose reaches for a glowing title as brass reading lamps illuminate the stacks. Behind them, curved arches, clockwork gears, and a steam-powered desk hint at a steampunk-infused setting. Outside the window, fogbound streets and horse-drawn carriages drift through mist. The paneling employs dynamic action lines and speech balloons hinting shh and new discovery, evoking classic comics. Color palette is moody sepia with electric blue accents for magical artifacts, creating a vintage yet vibrant look.
