Sadly,Segar's final story was unfinished,
By A Customer
This review is from: Complete E. C. Segar Popeye, Vol. 11: Dailies 1937-1938 (Paperback)
This final volume in the wonderful Popeye series concludes unsatisfactrily.the stories that segar wrote in 1937 & 1938 are top-notch(A Sock for Susan's Sake is very good,Wild Oats is a scream, Valley of the Goons is delightful)but his unfortunate end from cancer in 1938 prevented him from truly concluding the story of King Swee'Pea- which Tom Sims & Doc Winner brought to a less-than -satisfacory conclusion.Recommedned to all Popeye fans and Segar completists because Segar was reaching his peak as a storyteller at this time. As Mort Walker said,"Maybe he wouldn't have been able to maintain quality during the 40s and 50s-but I sure would've liked to see him try."

An Excellent Nastolgic Look,
This review is from: The complete E.C. Segar Popeye (The Nemo bookshelf) (Paperback)
Popeye, has been a cultural Icon of the USA for over 60 years and this book brings to the public forum the witty, warm and often whimsical nature of the original Segar serial. It is a must for all collectors and for children yearning to find out just why their parents make them eat their spinach.
