I was starting to learn html/css when the Gen-AI revolution explode. That got me thinking: I could build a comic using html+css that sounds cool & unprecedented. I did so for the sake of practice not for money. I have to say that is resisting very well the test of time. When i did it many people drop me comments on the lines of: thats just push a button. But i knew it was a lot of work behind the scenes. Its just another way of working. After that time, i think im right, if you want to make a high quality product using AI you have to put effort or its gonna be garbage. Its just a competition on another level, just when car races started didnt make racing easier than before because other people now uses car too. Anyway, check it out & tell me. I started learning HTML/CSS right as the Gen-AI revolution was beginning, which sparked an idea: could I build a full digital comic using only HTML and CSS? It sounded like a cool, unprecedented technical challenge. I pursued this purely as a learning exercise and a personal project, not for profit. The project is The Lost World 2030, a 260+ page comic with hundreds of images. The key constraint was using zero JavaScript. The entire layout, panel flow, and navigation are driven purely by CSS features like flexbox, grid, and CSS animations. When I initially worked on this, some comments implied using AI meant it was "just push a button," but I've found that high-quality results with AI still require significant effort and a deep understanding of the tools—it's a different way of working, not an easier one. This project is my proof of that. The work was in the technical implementation of the comic itself. I made a a reddit channel about it, this is an interesting article i wrote: https://www.reddit.com/r/THELOSTWORLD/comments/1eyr00s/comic...

I believe this is one of the first substantial art projects integrating AI imagery within a purely HTML/CSS structure. I'd appreciate the community's feedback, especially on the technical implementation and the performance of the all-CSS approach. Thanks!
