following a poll from @haveyoureadthiscomic-poll i decided to purchase "the lost carnival: a dick grayson graphic novel" after seeing the tags filled people saying they read it and had to stop not far into it
ngl that piqued my interest so i bought it
(context, i'm obsessed with dick so i felt like i was a good person to ready it)
spoiler-free
it was fine
idk man, the start was rough, but it got better
the "twist" was cliché, it wasn't anything spectacular, it was a weird almost AU where dick didn't like being in Haly's (which only tours in the summer) but it wasn't like throw it out the window bad that people made it out to be
maybe im just easy to please but some of it was cute and i liked that dick still got to fight despite it being pre-batman
i also loved the monochromatic art, the way the colours shift depending on where they are was just beautiful
would i recommend it?
idk, not to newer readers who don't know enough about dick to know this isn't representative to his character but if you do know him and can force yourself through the start it was fine and will look nice next to my teen titans graphic novels
i just wish it'd ended with them going to gotham, would've made me scream
it was fine, i don't regret reading it, it's like a fun AU but it isn't the dick grayson we love y'know

Okay, I said previously I’d make a post about Mary and John in the Lost Carnival book.
Well, here’s some key moments I found the most interesting and memorable from that book, a further showcasing how close knit of a family the Flying Graysons 1.0 are, no matter which DCU they inhabit
Amazing Acrobats As Per Usual, to the point even Dick (in fairness in this elseworld he’s a teen that’s been performing for a long time with his family) can say it’s boring lol
John catching up with his son after a small incident, part of the larger story of course, making sure he’s alright
This scene ……Oh Me Oh My…Dear God, X’hal and Rao gosh I love this scene so freaking much. Mary being there to comfort her boy and giving life advice (Granted sure it’s an elseworld so meaning it’s not Kory being involved sadly though I state had it been Kory, this advice would still be there. Mary seems like that kind of Mom ya know?)
And finally, these respecting their son’s choices with his life at this story, sure maybe entering college is drastically different from say being a colorful costume clad crime fighter he is canonically but I’m sure Mary and John will be able to respect that one way or another had they been present.
Gosh, I swear these two were such a highlight in this book, it even makes me pardon the fact that romance here isn’t with Kory. Oh well though, I take what I can get lol

well that was fucking grueling
But I am still the king of clowns. No matter what ridiculously difficult Blade has to say about it.
