Because I can't publish things twice, you will have to go to the previous post to see my starting point. First I made a sketch.

Now that #5 character is my new image to image starter. So it becomes "Image 1" in my prompt. Using 2.5 Sunburst, I made a comic book page with that character. Each prompt I wrote the vibe of the comic book page. I didn't write the dialogue. The experiment is to see how successfully used my sketch-to-ai character in the different types of comic books. So we are looking at the visuals and the vibe. Ready? # 3 All GPT 2.5 Sunburst. Prompts are as listed. 1. **create a hilarious whimsical 5 panel comic book page with this character in image 1** 2. **create a witty intellectual 5 panel comic book page with this character in image 1** 3. **create a chaotic surreal absurdist 5 panel comic book page with this character in image 1** 4. **create a noir hardboiled 5 panel comic book page with this character in image 1**
