Gateway on the Frozen Lake: A Comic-Book Portal

On a vast frozen lake, a glowing ornate gateway rises from the cracked ice, emitting swirling neon energy. Rendered in bold comic-book style with thick black ink outlines, dynamic action lines, and halftone shading. The ice reflects the portal in electric cyan and deep blue, with magenta highlights. Snow drifts, aurora lighting, and a distant city skyline under a starry night. Perspective from ground level on the ice looking slightly up at the gateway, cracks radiating outward in a starburst, energy wisps curling around the arch, and a lone figure approaching to step through. The gateway is intricate—a fusion of runic motifs and futuristic circuitry—giving a sense of mystery and danger. Heavy contrast, cinematic lighting, and retro superhero vibe to emphasize motion and drama.
