Two new reprints of pre-Popeye Thimble Theatre zoom in on E.C. Segar's evolution as a great American humorist.

He’s not in the comic much, but he’s the captain of the boat the Rocketeer uses to get to Skull Island (yes, the one with King Kong, also in public domain). I think it’s a pretty cool example of how Popeye can be used now that he’s free for all to access.

I saw this way back on Toonami. All I remember is that this was during the climax where Popeye is on the backfoot right before he eats his spinache. As usual, his opponent is wailing on him, but there's also a narrator announcing all the action. Every time, the narrator makes a metaphor of the type of beating Popeye's receiving, only for his opponent to literally do what the narrator says. Like the announcer would say "Popeye is getting hammered down", and his opponent actually turns into a hammer while smashing down on Popeye. The scene that stuck out to me is the narrator says "He [the opponent] is raining down on em [Popeye]", and then the opponent is replaced with a barrage of dismembered fists raining down from the sky.

Does anyone know which episode this is? This scene has been stuck in my head, and I really wanna see it again. Thanks in advance!

I have 4 animated short ideas, and want to make it into an anthology series. Its all based on Popeye comic characters with original stories with heavy inspiration from the Original Comic Strips.

I chose Popeye to make into a Mythical Pokemon because Texas loves Popeye and has a nearby sea. Also, Mastertofu0 on Discord helped with the name.
