My homage to the grates cartoon sin the history of everything. EC Segar’s Popeye.

I’m so happy for all the people reading the spirit again and in the large format - Dar J Dave and Jared were working like a finely tuned machine for those books - it’s my favourite run of all the comics I was involved in, every page is full of action, mystery and adventure.

I've been off this site for a few days and I don't know if you guys realize how much of it is just everyone trying to top each other for the best joke about the latest worst thing that's ever happened.
