Create a 16:9 four-panel original neo-cartoon frame set inspired by early-2000s flat graphic television animation without copying any specific network, show, or character. Use thick black outlines, flat geometric shapes, vivid solid colors, simplified playful anatomy, exaggerated expressions, quirky silhouettes, minimal stylized backgrounds, and crisp white panel dividers. Show four original comedic scenes: a stern red-haired adventurer holding a clearly fictional toy blaster, a surprised formal-dress character in a stylized theater, two adult hobby inventors in bright yellow hoodies holding harmless soda bottles, and a mischievous one-eyed costume character with a milk glass. Avoid real cartoon shows, protected character designs, recognizable sitcom or crime-drama characters, official costumes, real firearms, drug-lab references, alcohol branding, logos, readable text, creator handles, and copied television frames. Output a polished 16:9 high-quality cartoon image with whimsical graphic charm.
