Buster: A Life in Pictures
Ryan Barnett, author

Adult; Comics/Graphic Novels; (Market)

Buster Keaton is among the most iconic faces ever to grace the silver screen. By the age of 24, he headlined his own independent studio where he and a handful of collaborators turned out 19 shorts and 10 feature comedies. Many of these films are seen as classics today, and a few are hailed among the greatest films ever made. At the peak of his creative powers, Buster Keaton rivalled Charlie Chaplin. But it didn't last... In this exciting new graphic novel biography, Ryan Barnett and Matthew Tavares weave together all of the triumphs, close calls, near misses, bumps, bruises and broken bones that defined Buster Keaton’s life and career. Barnett/Tavares present an entertaining portrait of a singular artist who influenced everyone from Salvador Dalí and Walt Disney to Wes Anderson and Jackie Chan.
