This is one of those rare exceptions. Sagendorf is immersed in Segar's world. His storytelling abilities are superb and his cartooning is a joy to behold. Sagendorf owned this universe as much as Segar - other artists have been able substitutes, but Sagendorf knew these eccentric personalities inside and out!"
