“Book Descriptions:
A stunning graphic debut: the life of the legendary silent-film actor Lon Chaney (the original
Phantom of the Opera
and
Hunchback of Notre Dame
), as imagined by an artist whose work recalls the style and skill of early-era
New Yorker
cartoonists.
From the artist: "'No one will ever love me!' I believe it was this near-universal fear that makes Lon Chaney's characters continue to resonate with us today. On their surface, most of them are distinctly unlikeable: they are monsters, outcasts, criminals. But through his unique magic, Chaney makes them empathetic. He pioneered the craft of makeup artist long before that term ever existed, and he used his expertise to hide himself from public view--what if nobody loved him?"
