Mermaid in a Modern Apartment: Comic Splash

Comic-book style illustration of a mermaid in a cozy urban apartment. A friendly mermaid with a shimmering teal-to-emerald tail and long wavy hair sits on a sofa, tail draped over the armrest. The living room is lit by neon city lights; a large window reveals a rainy night skyline. Bold black ink outlines, flat vibrant colors, and halftone shading give a classic comic feel. Dynamic panel-like composition with motion lines and speech bubbles. Include a coffee table with a laptop, a pizza box, a fish tank, potted plant, seashell decor, and a bookshelf. Add exaggerated expressions, reflections on wet surfaces, and a splash-page energy that makes the apartment feel like a comic scene brought to life.
