What are some key characteristics that define a distinct 'style' in comic art?

A comic's style is defined by a combination of elements: line weight (thick, thin, varied), rendering (detailed, minimalist, cel-shaded), color palette (vibrant, muted, monochrome), character design (realistic, cartoonish, stylized), panel layout (traditional, experimental), and lettering style. A cohesive combination of these creates a unique visual identity.
