Art style: Comic book. A stark, deep charcoal background serves as the canvas for a dramatic opening title sequence. Centered in the frame, massive, bold yellow typography with a slight drop shadow screams '90% GO TO ZERO'. The letters have a heavy, blocky weight. Floating just above the text, a stylized gold coin with a 'B' symbol etched into its face—resembling a cartoon cryptocurrency—is captured in mid-fall. The coin has a distinct metallic sheen with golden highlights and darker amber shadows. The composition is a flat, graphic frontal view. Below the main text, a secondary line in a smaller, white sans-serif font reads 'Crypto, explained.' in a subtle italic style. The lighting is artificial and high-contrast, as if from a spotlight hitting the center of the frame. In the extreme foreground, several shards of a previously shattered gold coin lie scattered, reflecting light in sharp, geometric glints. The mood is confrontational and high-stakes. The texture of the background is slightly grainy, like vintage paper, while the yellow text appears smooth and vibrant. No characters are visible in this specific frame, but the atmosphere is heavy with impending skepticism. Muted dust particles catch the light in the dark voids around the letters, adding a sense of physical space to the otherwise flat graphic layout. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt): Render this image entirely in "Comic book" style. Match the lighting grammar, material response, colour science, level of realism / stylisation, line weight, and shading model typical of "Comic book". Keep the subject, composition, camera angle, lighting direction, and colour palette from the description above — but EVERY surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in the "Comic book" idiom, not in any other medium. Character appearance reference (MUST match exactly): - Vince: Strong rule: style --- Comic book ---. Strong rule: style --- Comic book ---. An elderly Caucasian man, approximately 74 years old, with distinguished short grey hair and a well-trimmed grey beard. He wears thin, delicate metal-frame glasses resting on the tip of his nose. His attire consists of a classic brown herringbone tweed blazer with dark suede elbow patches, a dark green wool waistcoat, a crisp white shirt, and a dark red bowtie. A polished gold signet ring is visible on his right pinky finger. He has a wise, weathered face with a permanent ironical squint and an air of retired professional confidence. He is seated in a library filled with leather books.
