Classic Popeye #29
In "The Boo-Bird," Swee'Pea’s disappointment over a missing dime leads to an unexpected treasure hunt when he digs up Popeye’s yard—uncovering a stash of pirate gold that’s been hidden for years. Written, drawn, and inked by the legendary Bud Sagendorf, this classic installment captures the whimsy and charm of the original comic strips, with Sagendorf’s distinctive art bringing every exaggerated expression and slapstick moment to life. The cover, also by Sagendorf, perfectly encapsulates the story’s playful spirit.
