He's funny, Popeye. His way of speaking, and his ready-made expressions. And what's more, he's a courageous guy, a good guy. A true hero. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e But this isn't exactly the Popeye you know. In this graphic novel there are other layers. A melancholy and beauty that only the exuberant watercolor art of Lelia, and the sharp and sensitive script of Antoine Ozanam, could express. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Unlike the famous cartoons, Popeye in this comic is an unlikely hero who could be found in any port around the world. In the story, a strange girl with flowery language arrives to hit him in his healthy eye. He is too old for her. But Olive is his girl, without a doubt. Like any man in love, reason disappears and Popeye agrees to go on an adventure with Olive's brother...in search of a fabulous treasure. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e ABLAZE is proud to bring this acclaimed work by Frenchman Ozanam and multi-award-winning Brazilian artist Lelis to English readers worldwide.

And a magnificent adventure story! \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAntoine Ozanam was born in Rouen in 1970, feeding on comics and alternative music throughout his youth. After studying visual communications, he started his professional career designing movie posters, music videos, CD-ROMs, and websites. In 1999, he released his first book, Hotel Noir, a comic in which the characters are made of modeling clay. It wasn't until 2004 that he decided to devote himself to a career as a writer. From that point on, he has written steadily, with dozens upon dozens of popular titles to his name. His works have spanned a wide range of tones and genres, from true historical thrillers such as The Diary of Anne Frank and Princess Caraboo, to supernatural fantasy and action.
