Stormy Pirate Comic Storyboard

Goal: Create a gritty black-and-white comic storyboard page for a pirate game scene, like a scanned manga/graphic novel production panel.

Canvas: Vertical comic page crop, grayscale only, with a dark surrounding workspace/background and a white page border. Add a small production label at the top left reading [panel code]. The main visible panel occupies almost the entire canvas, with a thick white gutter and the top edges of two smaller panels barely visible at the bottom.

Main panel layout: A rain-lashed pirate ship deck during a violent thunderstorm. Center the composition on one tall pirate captain in a dramatic low-angle pose, standing full body from thighs upward, fist thrust toward the viewer. His face is obscured by a soft rectangular gray blur/censor box. He has long wet curly hair, a heavy black captain’s coat with many buttons, layered shirt and sash, belts, chains, pistols or tools at the waist, and ragged wet fabric. Behind him is a rowdy crew of exactly 5 visible pirates: 1 shouting pirate on the left midground partly covered by a gray blur box, 1 hunched pirate at the lower left partly covered by a gray blur box, 1 shouting pirate just right of center behind the captain, 1 hat-wearing pirate near the right side, and 1 bearded pirate at the far right holding a flintlock pistol with a gray blur box over part of his torso/face area. Add exactly 1 large parrot or raven-like bird flying in the upper right with wings spread. Include ship rigging, wooden beams, ropes, lantern glow on the left, rain streaks, sea spray, lightning, and chaotic crowd energy.

Text and effects: Include exactly 3 speech balloons and exactly 3 sound-effect captions. Speech balloon 1, upper left, says “AWAY, ME SEA-DOGS! TO WRECKER’S REACH!!”. Speech balloon 2, right center, says “AYE! TO THE HEARTSTONE!!!”. Speech balloon 3 is only partially visible in the bottom cropped panel and begins “YOU’D BETTER BE,”. Sound effect 1, large bold tilted letters on the left, says “AAAYE!”. Sound effect 2, upper right near lightning, says “HEARTSTONE!”. Sound effect 3, near the bird, says “BRAWK!”. Use hand-lettered comic typography, white speech balloons with black outlines, bold outlined sound effects, and dynamic placement.

Visual style: High-detail monochrome ink illustration, dense crosshatching, wet glossy blacks, harsh contrast, splashy white highlights, scratchy rain lines, cinematic fantasy pirate action, dramatic perspective, heavy texture, energetic comic-book rendering, no color except grayscale.

Customizable details: The pirate destination can be [destination name]; the magical object or rallying cry can be [relic name]; the captain’s command can be [captain command]; the crew response can be [crew response].

Constraints: Keep the image as a single dramatic comic page crop, preserve exactly 5 visible crew pirates plus the central captain and exactly 1 bird, preserve exactly 4 soft gray censor/placeholder rectangles over characters, preserve the thick white comic borders, and do not add extra readable text beyond the specified labels, balloons, and sound effects.
