I can only imagine the following panel of Popeye crushing a can of spinach open and then the next panel after that is an ambulance parked in front of their house, along with a police car.
A quick search found the following panels here, if anyone is interested:
Well, dang!
A lot of the old Popeye hasn't aged too well for me, often being on the repetitive and dull side, but this sequence is hilarious, sharp, and has aged really well IMO. So... we're looking at a date of... Dec 19th, 1937, is it?
I did some searching and I'm seeing 1937 and 1938, so yeah, that's probably about right.
"Disgustipated" was coined by E.C. Segar in his syndicated comic strip Popeye. Earliest known use was 1938.
I only knew it as a Tool song. Neat.
Olive Oyl revealing her tentacle fetish wasn't in my bingo card.
Secondary shock from this: Popeye was a redhead?! How have I gone this long without knowing that?
Sure, later media has him keep his hat on or else he has only a few wispy hairs if any at all, but I feel like I should have seen this at some point in the past few decades.
Of all the things I didn't expect to learn about Olive Oyl...
I kinda want to check something on AO3 right now.
Bust her back, Popeye. She's screamin' for it.
jesus wtf. I was never into popeye but I didn't expect it to be like this
Those really weren't for kids, were they
Dayumn Olive toxic
i mean mood
Next week: accused of domestic abuse and divorced with all his money taken away. Also told he ruined her life by not wrecking her ribs.
Hmmm this shows up right after the post on pegnog. Oh Popeye. New meaning to the poop deck.
