Popeye, arguably one of the most iconic characters in comic book history, is reimagined for the modern age in this high-energy, manga-infused comic series by Marcus Williams (Marvel's Captain America).

With time running out and tough decisions on the horizon, Popeye and his crew must pull together like never before to save Swee'Pea and face the greatest challenge of their lives.
