Raiders of the Lost Ark as a Popeye comic

Chuck Forsman created this wonderful retelling of Raiders of the Lost Ark in the form of an old Popeye newspaper strip; he's selling prints for $20.

(Thanks, Tim!)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

This is the best thing EVAR. I grew up on reprints of the Segar Minute Movie classics, and this nails them in every way, from the art, to the pacing, to the dialogue. Top marks!

I bought books 3 and 4 of the big Fantagraphics Popeye reprint series. They are flavorful. My dad and my son both love them also.

looks like Tin Tin…

  Very early Tin Tin. Nothing like HergÃ©’s later work which defines his art.
