Chaplin was the most famous. He may have been the first real international superstar, something that only became possible when mass media like motion pictures made it possible for people all over the world to experience a performance without the performer actually having to be there. Keaton was next in terms of fame, though some say that, as a pure, physical comic, he was actually better than Chaplin. In terms of fame and popularity, Lloyd was third behind Chaplin and Keaton. There were other silent comics who were very famous at the time but whose stars have dimmed over the decades -- Fatty Arbuckle, for instance. Chaplin, Keaton and Lloyd, in that order, are still the big three of silent comedy.
