Salt Flat Mansion: Comic Panel Noir Under Harsh Sun

An enormous mansion rises from a vast salt flat under a scorching sun. The scene is drawn in bold comic book style with heavy black ink outlines, exaggerated perspective, and halftone textures. The salt plain is pure white with cracked crust and glimmering crystals, and distant mountains line the horizon. The mansion blends Gothic and Art Deco elements with tall spires, arched windows, a sweeping staircase, and wrought iron gates. Dramatic high contrast lighting creates stark shadows and glossy reflections on the salt. The sky features a gradient of saturated blues and yellows, rendered with color blocking and Ben Day dot textures. Onomatopoeic sound effects such as BOOM and CRACK appear around the scene as stylized captions. The composition uses a low angle wide shot that makes the mansion dominate the frame, with dynamic panel like framing.
