 Comic books with Silent Film characters, stories or biographies This section created by ednapurviance.org. Since being introduced properly to the comic book world by English comic creator and silent film fan, Garen Ewing, I have been interested in comics and graphic novels with a silent film theme, history and/or characters involved in the story. So with the high intestest in graphic novels today, decided to create this section. This section of books below all have a connection to silent films, wheher fictional or non-fictional. Included are some of the past comic books that feature Charlie Chaplin. I hope to see this section grow overtime. While most of the links are to Amazon, but this only a guide, where you buy books is up to you. But I recommend fans to buy direct from the authors , whenever you can. This helps show you support for the creator, artist and writers. (HB - Hardback PB - Paperback) Interested in Chaplin's films? Follow these links to DVD and VHS collection: |
