SILVER was one of the most fantastic creative and human adventures of my life. In complete independence, we took this series on the road to comic book conventions all around the country, where it connected with readers, and became a grassroots sensation! The journey included an Eisner Award nomination, cosplayers, and to this day, outselling pretty much any other graphic novel series on the convention floor.
The “tower of Empties” has become our bragging rights tradition at the end of every show! (Emerald City Comic Con, Seattle 2023)
The reception that SILVER enjoyed from Diamond and comic book stores was also amazing! I grew up in my parents’ book store myself, so this is very special to me!
Most importantly to me Silver has become an artists’ favorite, and the appreciation of these creative legends (and wonderful humans) is beyond humbling.
“Silver is so big, bold, and juicy! I absolutely love this book! ”
— BILL SIENKIEWICZ (Elektra: Assassin, Stray Toasters)
“With Silver, Stephan Franck shows how much excitement can be packed into a fast-moving, thrilled filled story... Dynamic, unfussy black and white art, all in the service of speed and momentum...a really, really fun ride.”
— TIM SALE (Batman: The Long Halloween)
My goal with SILVER in particular and comics in general, is to bring together my favorite aspects of two storytelling traditions: the universal clarity and effectiveness of film language, and the graphic qualities and singular uniqueness of each comic page. Hopefully, the result is something that is immersive, powerful, exciting, and accessible to everyone.
