Pure comics joy awaits you here, my friends.-- \"Four Color Apocalypse\" Review Quotes : Nearly every episode collected here reveals Segar to be an absurdly hilarious master draftsman and wildly entertaining storyteller. ... An essential volume of both graphic storytelling and early 20th-century art.-- \"Library Journal (Starred Review)\" Review Quotes : This new volume is perfect for a classic cartoon fan. Its focus on relatable themes like love, romance, and daffy humor make it a series readers should not miss.-- \"Screen Rant\" Brief Description : \"In the third volume of the E.C. Segar Popeye Sundays, Popeye and company embark on a gothic adventure on the high seas\"-- Review Quotes : 'Plunder Island' has a big reputation as a high point in newspaper comics of the period. It pushed the comic strip form forward in a style unlike anything readers had ever seen before.-- \"The Slings \u0026amp; Arrows\" Publisher Marketing : Volume three centers around the epic Popeye adventure, \"Plunder Island,\" in which our endearing cast of characters takes to the high seas in search of buried treasure -- but must contend with the ruthless Sea Hag and her strange sidekick, Alice the Goon. Steeped in shadow and gothic imagery, this tale is an atmospheric and suspenseful departure from the typical Popeye aesthetic -- with a little screwball comedy thrown in for good measure. Also in this volume, Popeye proves to be a one-man wrecking crew on the gridiron, Wimpy tries his unsteady hand at duck shooting (uh-oh!), and the crew ride out to the Wild West town of Slither Creek on a rip-roaring gold-hunting expedition. Plus, contemporary Filipino cartoonist Bong Redila pens a lighthearted comic homage to the iconic, eerie duo headlining this volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback | \u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 128 | \u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2023-12-19\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fantagraphics Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46488542150787,"sku":"9781683968849","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0564\/6830\/8099\/files\/9781683968849.jpg?v=1770335500","url":"https:\/\/sebink.com\/products\/9781683968849","provider":"Sebink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
