So, like comics from the 50-80s with weird palletes.

  Apparently when (I believe it was) the Sistine Chapel frescoes were restored in the 80s, there was outrage because the colors looked garish and "like a comic book". But that's how Michelangelo painted them originally; the subtle coloration that people appreciated was actually the result of accumulated dirt, grime, and candle wax over the centuries.
