Tales of the Sailor Man

Ahoy! The world’s most popular sailor springs to new action inspired life in TALES OF THE SAILOR MAN!

Created by E. C. Segar as a part of his ‘Thimble Theatre’ comic strip, Popeye sailed into newspapers in 1929 and his voyages have continued across every known medium! With arms like tree trunks, a squint that makes pirates quake and quiver, and a unique take on what passes for the English language, Segar’s one time supporting character quickly planted his flag as the lead for not only the comic strip, but also a whole host of cartoons, comics, and more.
Join Jim Beard, Aubrey G. Stephens, and Brian K. Morris as they take the two-fisted mariner both back to his roots and into a new style, even for him. Three tales that draw from Popeye’s earliest days in ‘Thimble Theatre’ with their eyes squarely set in the direction of high-octane adventure!

So, enjoy a generous helping of Oyl, not Olive, and rub the Whiffle Hen for luck as you set sail with the roughest, toughest swab ever to walk a deck!
