From the Publisher

Popeye, Fantagraphics, E.C. Segar, Popeye Sundays, classic comics

An irresistible alchemy of screwball comedy, tender romance, and rags-to-riches fantasy, Elsie Crisler Segar's newspaper comic strip captivated readers of the Roaring Twenties and beyond. Fantagraphics is thrilled to bring Segar's whimsical world back into print, reviving the origins of the beloved spinach-eating American icon for a whole new readership. The E.C. Segar Popeye Sundays series collects the complete Popeye Sunday stories in four gorgeous full-color volumes, each packaged in a deluxe die-cut vertical slipcase.

Featuring tongue-twisting gags, sensational slugfests, and an endearing ensemble of characters, this revival of classic Popeye adventures really packs a punch and will captivate stalwart fans and new readers alike. Popeye Volume 1, coming this November, is introduced with comic tributes by acclaimed cartoonists Sergio Ponchione and Cathy Malkasian.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"An essential volume of both graphic storytelling and early 20th-century art. ... Nearly every episode collected here reveals Segar to be an absurdly hilarious master draftsman and wildly entertaining storyteller."
Library Journal (Starred Review)

"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

"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

"Modern audiences who know Popeye and his supporting cast only through later animated cartoons will be surprised by the richness of his original incarnation."
Booklist

"This new volume is perfect for a classic cartoon fan. Its focus on relatable themes like love, romance, commerce, and daffy humor make it a series readers should not miss."
