“Mr. Squeejik offers $1,000,000 to anyone who can defeat Popeye”

In a 1943 Four Color comic, Popeye finds himself challenged by billionaire George Squeejik, who offers a million dollars to anyone who can defeat him. The fight begins at a restaurant, where Squeejik's henchmen—each more absurd than the last, including one who trains on carrots—take turns trying to knock out the spinach-powered sailor. Bill Zaboly’s dynamic art brings the over-the-top showdown to life, with bold lines and energetic action from start to finish.
