Pete Transformed into They Live Alien

I created a possible YouTube intro screen for Pete Bickford's (mostly) weekly ComicBaseTV shannel.

[Workflow: Nano banana for helping provide elements to expand poster then everything else done by hand in Affinity for fonts, face mapping, poster merge, etc.]

ComicBase Splash Loader Screen: Stranger Things Halloween Comic Book Store

I created another variant splash loading page for the new ComicBase 2026 that features two young kids dressed up for Halloween.

[Workflow: Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) to create the base look. I then imported it into Affinity Photo to finish the store logo, added an octo-creature, fixed other background elements, and I also used Topaz Gigapixel to upscale some flow as needed.]

ComicBase Splash Loader Screen: Mystery Comic Store

I created a variant splash loading page for the new ComicBase 2026 that features a young Pete Bickford standing outside his local comic book store.  The art credit for the program is attached below.

[Workflow: Gemini 2.5 Flash Image (Nano Banana) to create the base look. I then imported it into Affinity Photo to clean up a few issues found while creating the background elements (books, poster, sky, etc), and I also used Topaz Gigapixel to upscale some flow as needed.]
