Steampunk illustration of an enigmatic alchemist, adorned with intricate brass goggles and a clockwork monocle, exuding a mysterious aura. The figure wears a high-collared, leather-trimmed coat with elaborate gear motifs and steam pipes subtly emitting wisps of vapor. Set against a backdrop of towering, gear-laden skyscrapers, the alchemist holds a vial of glowing liquid, suggesting arcane experiments. The art style is dynamic and detailed, capturing the energy and depth typical of Jim Lee's iconic comic book illustrations.
