The best Popeye comic book stories collected into one glorious collection! There are three genius incarnations of Popeye - the comic strip by E.C. Segar, the animations by Max Fleischer, and unknown to many, the brilliant 1940s and '50s comic book stories by Bud Sangendorf! Comics historian Craig Yoe collects and beautifully packages the best of the best of Sangendorf's thrilling and roll-on-the-floor laughing tales. See the Sea Hag, Bluto, and, of course, Olive Oyl, Wimpy, and Sweepea join Popeye in exciting adventures and brilliant comic book stories.
Forrest Bud Sagendorf (1915 - 1994) wrote and drew more Popeye comic strips and books than any other cartoonist-and wrote and drew them better than all the other swabs! When Bud was just 17, his sister, who worked in an art supply store in Santa Monica, California, introduced him to a customer, E.C. Segar, the creator of Popeye. Bud began a long relationship with Segar who became his teacher, employer, and father figure. After Segar's passing, Bud produced comic books for 24 years, penned the daily strip, and drew art for licensing products.
