Can you give an example of a 'long lost graphic novel'?
One example could be 'The Silver Star' by an unknown or relatively unheard - of creator from the early days of graphic novels. It might have been a self - published work with a very limited print run. Maybe it told a unique story about a space adventure in a time when most graphic novels were focused on more earthly matters. But because of its small - scale production and lack of marketing, it quickly became long lost.
An example might be a graphic novel from the 1970s called 'The Mysterious City'. It was created by a small group of artists who were experimenting with new art forms in graphic novels. However, the publisher faced financial difficulties and only a few hundred copies were printed. Over the years, these copies got scattered or damaged, and the graphic novel was largely forgotten. It had a complex story about a hidden city with magical elements, but without proper distribution, it disappeared from public knowledge.
There's a graphic novel called 'The Forgotten Quest'. It was made by an independent artist in the 1980s. This graphic novel was about a group of adventurers on a journey to find a lost artifact. But the artist couldn't afford to print many copies, and the ones that were printed were sold mainly in local comic stores in a small town. As time passed, the artist stopped promoting it, and the stores that had it either closed down or lost their copies. So it became a long lost graphic novel.
