Thunderbird in the Catacombs: Comic Book Showdown

An epic panel-ready illustration of a colossal thunderbird bursting through the shadowy catacombs. Comic book style with bold ink lines, high-contrast lighting, and halftone texture. The thunderbird has electric blue and midnight ember plumage, wings spread wide, beak open as if calling a storm. Jagged lightning coils around ancient stone arches and mossy pillars. The catacombs loom with tall vaulted ceilings, torch-lit walls, and carved reliefs of storms. Dynamic perspective from below, with motion lines and speed lines emphasizing soaring motion. Palette blends cool blues and teals with warm yellow orange lightning, white highlights for sparks. Cinematic framing, dramatic shadows, and a hint of mystery.
