Popeye Ghost Ship to Treasure Island (1967) is a Big Little Book published by Western Publishing, Co. 250 pages, color pictures with text, 3.5-in. x 4.75-in., newsprint with hardcover, with $0.39 cover price. Cover price $0.39.

Volume 3 - 1st printing. "Let's You and Me Fight!" By E.C. Segar. We reach the halfway point of Segar's masterpiece with this volume, which includes one of Segar's greatest maritime epics, "The Eighth Sea," plus "King of Popilania" and the hilarious "Popeye, Star Reporter" - plus the arrival (in a crate!) of Swee'Pea! Also, lots of J. Willington Wimpy, our cover star. Aa a bonus this volume includes the never before reprinted two-week run of double-sized "Chicago World's Fair" Popeye strips from 1933 - plus the conclusion of Donald Phelps's incisive essay "Real People, Real Theatre," and Rick Marschall's insightful analysis of Segar's continuity and story techniques. Hardcover, 10 1/2-in. x 14 1/2-in., 168 pages, Partial Color (PB&W). Cover price $29.95.

Volume 5 - 1st printing. "Wha's a Jeep!" POPEYE MEETS HIS PAPPY! PLUS SWEE'PEA AND THE JEEP! Remember last volume's cliffhanger? The penultimate installment of this acclaimed reprinting of E.C. Segar's masterpiece begins with "Popeye's Ark: Part Two," the tale of Popeye's eventful reign over Spinachovia - a bleak island populated only by men and lacking all "femininity" - even as Olive Oyl controls the country of Olivia (not to mention the men of Spinachovia). Then in "War Clouds," the two monarchies come tumbling down in a furious battle as Spinachovia is attacked by the tyrannical land-hungry King of Brutia, King Zlobbo! This volume's star is Eugene the Jeep, the rare, friendly, leopard-spotted, and magically-endowed little creature. And Segar makes a great addition to the cast in "The Search for Popeye's Poppa," when the ever-cantankerous Poopdeck Pappy is tracked and finally, hilariously found; the title of the follow-up story, "Civilizing Poppa," speaks for itself, as it tells the classic tale of man taming beast as Popeye guides a stubborn Pappy through table manners. And as in every volume, this year-and-a-half's worth of full-color Sunday strips are as dazzlingly reproduced as ever. The adventures of Popeye, Olive, Wimpy, Swee'Pea and the gang on the top are complemented with the riotously funny bonus strip "Sappo," including a somewhat self-referential storyline where the titular character becomes a cartoonist and teaches the craft to his friend, Professor Wotasnozzle. Hardcover, 10 1/2-in. x 14 1/2-in., 168 pages, Partial Color (PB&W). Cover price $29.95.

1st printing. By Jim Woodring. Readers who haven't discovered Jim Woodring's "Frank" stories have a colossal treat waiting for them in this gem collecting the character's greatest adventures. Frank is a unique, visionary comic, exquisitely drawn and so fully realized that adults and children alike find themselves drawn deeply into Woodring's hallucinatory mindscape. The stories, almost entirely wordless, are told with brilliant, candy colors. The stories themselves unravel like a good puzzle, rewarding re-reading, providing an experience as immersive as that first love affair, that first samadhi, or that first breath. Simply put, the world of Frank must be experienced to be understood.Frank is an 11-year-old generic anthropomorph who lives in a force-laden landscape called the Unifactor. He is curious but not smart, naïve but not noble, and his most outstanding character trait is his ineducability. Along with Pupshaw, Frank's semi-subservient housedog-like godling, the two traipse across their surreal landscape, occasionally encountering Manhog, the bloated bladder of sin with a heart of radiance who exists to thwart their prosperity. And then there's the platonic Jerry Chickens, and the lachrymose Lucky, as well as Frank's Real Pa and Faux Pa, each a part of one of the great cartoon achievements of the 20th century.For all its mystery, the world of Frank is a simple, delightful, mesmerizing example of world-building at its most fanciful, surely to delight parents and children alike. Softcover, 6-in. x 8 1/2-in., 200 pages, B&W. Cover price $16.99.
