The Complete E.C. Segar Popeye

Fantagraphics’ The Complete E.C. Segar Popeye (1984–1990) collected the classic Thimble Theatre newspaper strips by legendary cartoonist E. C. Segar, with later issues featuring continuations by Bobby London and William DeMille. This 11-issue series preserved the original, rough-edged humor and character work that defined Popeye and Olive Oyl, long before the sailor became a cultural icon. It remains an essential archival project for fans of Segar’s singular, pre-animation artistry.
