Popeye Volume 1 (Graphic Novel)

- Reviews -

Just as Charles Dickens took advantage of the serial publication of his early novels to introduce new characters and change directions, so also did Segar add, subtract and tinker until he had his comic strip working at its peak -- and a brilliant, witty peak it was. -- "The Washington Post" One of the great geniuses of the comic strip form, E. C. Segar created work that represents some of America' s finest art in its epic scale, colloquial language, daffy humor and themes of romance and commerce. . . . Not to be missed. -- "Time Magazine"
