MARS ATTACKS POPEYE Dedicated to Bob Burns

 

MARS ATTACKS POPEYE is affectionately dedicated to super Popeye fan, the one and only Bob Burns, who is recovering from recent heart surgery.

 

Eat your spinach, Uncle Bob, and get well soon!

A New Awesome Review!

"It's awesome!  Seriously, my hat is off to Martin Powell (writer) and Terry Beatty (art) for completely capturing the feel and look of Popeye in what has to be my favorite mashup since Archie met the Punisher. Highly recommended."

Rave Reviews Keep On Comin'

"This was as close as you'll ever find to a perfect comic book. Martin Powell does a wonderful job of making Popeye talk like he always has. Terry Beatty demonstrates his adaptability as a cartoonist by depicting Popeye and cast perfectly, making them look like they'd just walked out of one of EC Segar's classic comic strips."

"Thank You...Thank You, too much..."

As J. Wellington Wimpy would say, "Thank you, thank you too much!"

First MARS ATTACKS POPEYE Interview!

"Martin Powell remained true to the wondrous innocence of the bygone age of the 'funny books'...I felt like a kid again, just laughing at Popeye's silly speech patterns....Of course, artist Terry Beatty's artwork helped bring me back into the past as well. The attention to detail of the characters was spot on."

Dreams Come True

I remember literally trembling with excitement as I wrote this page -- depicting the first appearance of the feisty sailor in MARS ATTACKS POPEYE. It was the realization of a life-long dream of writing for Popeye, my favorite character since before I can even remember.

Once I saw Terry Beatty's fabulous art on the page I nearly swooned.

Don't listen to anyone who says that dreams don't come true. I'm living proof that they do.

Happy 2013

Well, so long 2012. In the old is-the-glass-half-empty-or-half-full question, I’ve always realistically answered, "It’s both.” While this was a lousy, even tragic year in many ways there were certain wonderful moments started which I hope will go on forever.

All in all, through good times and bad, I’m a very lucky guy.

Happy 2013, everyone.
