Description: This volume collects the entirety of Segar's original Popeye (Thimble Theatre) covers 1930-1932 and introduces Segar's second greatest character: Wimpy. This second volume of the acclaimed hit series collecting the entirety of E.C. Segar's original Popeye (a.k.a. Thimble Theatre) comic strips begins with a foreword by Beetle Bailey creator Mort Walker and continues with an introduction by noted film and cartooning critic Donald Phelps. This second volume features work from 1930 to 1932, and most notably includes the debut of Segar's second greatest character: J. Wellington Wimpy. Wimpy stands as a one-of-a-kind icon some 70 years after his creation, the most likeable lowdown cad ever to grace the comics page. Popeye Vol. 2 includes the stories: "Clint Gore" (continued from the cliffhanger last volume); "A One-Way Bank," in which Popeye opens a bank that allows withdrawals but no deposits; an extended war story featuring King Blozo that begins with "The Great Rough-House War"; and "Skullyville," which wraps up the daily strips for this volume. Your books are packed and shipped by a Pro! We bag our books and wrap them in thick cardboard before packing. We use blue low tack tape for easy removal of cardboard wrapping. Plastic bags and bubble envelopes provide no protection against rough handling, resulting in corner and spine damage. I carefully package and ship all books in a BOX or CARDBOARD MEDIA MAILER to ensure they arrive in the condition shown. I am a service and quality driven seller. Any questions? Need more photos? Feel free to contact me through eBay. Thanks for looking and please check out my store! Keeth. CM3852
