Popeye Volume 1: Olive Oyl and Her Sweety by E.C. Segar

adventurous funny lighthearted fast-paced

4.5

This book gets weird and wacky, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The plots of many of the comics gets a little repetitive, as Popeye finds himself in many a boxing match, but he's also slugging horses and the police and talking about how he's a sensitive guy and no one understands him. You can see the progression, as Popeye must have started to get popular with children. Suddenly kids in the comics think Popeye is cool, too!

Good stuff, and a nice archive of stories past.
