I tried using Generative AI to rework my comic from 2020 [see this post for a background on making this comic for my brother].

![]() | Illustrate a whimsical comic scene set on a theater stage with curtains. The stage is uniquely constructed out of a variety of three-dimensional letters forming words.

In conclusion... Let's not forget about human ingenuity, expression and art in this crazy new world! The weird outputs from AI are going to get old, fast.
