Art style: Dark Comic.
Dark comic book art style, ominous noir graphic novel framing. Kenji standing before the massive, chained and rusted iron gate leading down into the submerged coal mine elevator shaft. Deep pitch-black abyss behind the bars, glowing faint ghostly embers of old miner lamps in the darkness. Heavy crosshatching.

FINAL STYLE ENFORCEMENT (this is the authoritative rendering directive — it overrides any style wording elsewhere in the prompt):
Render this image in the following art style:
dark graphic-novel illustration — gritty comic book art style, heavy black inking, bold outlines, detailed cross-hatching and dramatic shading. Exaggerated character features, intense expressions, deep wrinkles, highly defined musculature. High contrast lighting. Desaturated grim background colors (grays, browns) with stark contrasting pop-color elements. Satirical and edgy atmosphere, masterpiece comic art.
Every surface, skin, fabric, material, and environmental element must be rendered in this idiom.
