Ok, keeping this for the record. This is my process of getting the look I want for  the comic book:

DescriptionResult
Duplicate the layers so we keep the originals

Work on the background:

Adjust the exposure

Colorize the background to slightly blue

Desaturate

Apply the cartoon effect

Apply the oilify effect

Work the foreground:

first bring up the exposure

Apply the cartoon effect

Apply the oilify effect.

It's going to be very light.

All these effects depend on the original image.

Cool the foreground by adjusting the color temperature to ~6000

Increase the saturation
