Current format, Graphic Novel, 2012, 1st Fantagraphics Books ed., All copies in use. Offered in 0 more formatsDue to E.C. Segar's death at age 44, this is the sixth, final volume. It starts off in grand style with "Mystery Melody," featuring the terrifying return of the shape-shifting Sea Hag. Olive Oyl, Wimpy, Poop-deck Pappy, the Jeep, the newly domesticated Goon, and Toar all appear in this four-month epic, as does Bolo, the latest in Segar's cast of massive Popeye opponents. Other stories include the melodramatic "A Sock for Susan's Sake" (Popeye becomes the protector of a girl who lives on the streets), Popeye's boxing duel with King Smacko, the return of Thimble Theatre's original star Castor Oyl as a detective who solves the case of "Plastic Pan," the Poopdeck Pappy yarn "Wild Oats" (culminating in a six-month prison sentence for the rambunctious oldster), "The Valley of the Goons" (in which Popeye is shocked to discover who the new leader of the Goons is), and the self-explanatory "King Swee'Pea." And that's just the dailies! Popeye Vol. 6: Me Li'l Swee'Pea also includes 62 splendid full-page full-color Sundays, featuring further adventures of Popeye and an epically surreal six-month interplanetary voyage for Sappo, the star of Popeye's "top strip."
