Haly's traveling circus, once the pinnacle of glamour, has lost much of its former splendor, with its primary attraction now being the Flying Graysons, a family of trapeze artists featuring teenage Dick Grayson. Disillusioned with performing the same old routines for a dwindling audience, Dick feels a growing sense of frustration and boredom. His life takes a turn when the nearby Lost Carnival opens, a mesmerizing new attraction that threatens to draw away Haly's remaining patrons. Drawn to its magical allure, Dick finds himself captivated by the carnival's enchanting nighttime glow.
As Dick delves deeper into the Lost Carnival, he encounters the mysterious Luciana and her increasingly bizarre carnival workers, each stranger than the last. The carnival, while dazzling, conceals ancient and dangerous forces that could pose significant threats. Torn between his loyalty to his family’s circus and the exciting new possibilities offered by the carnival—including new friendships and romance—Dick must navigate the treacherous allure of the Lost Carnival. The Lost Carnival, a young adult graphic novel by Michael Moreci and Sas Milledge, explores Dick Grayson’s journey of self-discovery, the power of young love, and the enchantment of new beginnings.
