Eventually, Ralph Stein stepped in to write the strip until the series was taken over by Bud Sagendorf in Sagendorf wrote and drew the daily strip until , and continued to write and draw the Sunday strip until his death in Sagendorf, who had been Segar's assistant, made a definite effort to retain much of Segar's classic style, although his art is instantly discernible. Sagendorf continued to use many obscure characters from the Segar years, especially O.

Wotasnozzle and King Blozo. Sagendorf's new characters, such as the Thung, also had a very Segar-like quality. What set Sagendorf apart from Segar more than anything else was his sense of pacing. Where plotlines moved very quickly with Segar, it would sometimes take an entire week of Sagendorf's daily strips for the plot to be advanced even a small amount. From to , the daily strip was written and drawn by Bobby London , who, after some controversy , was fired from the strip for a story that could be taken to satirize abortion.

The Sunday edition of the comic strip is currently drawn by Hy Eisman , who took over in The daily strip began featuring reruns of Sagendorf's strips after London was fired and continues to do so today. On January 1, , 70 years since the death of his creator, Segar's character of Popeye though not the various films, TV shows, theme music and other media based on him became public domain [13] in most countries, but remains under copyright in the United States.

Because Segar was an employee of King Features Syndicate when he created the Popeye character for the company's Thimble Theatre strip, Popeye is treated as a work for hire under U.

In the Dell comics, Popeye became something of a crimefighter, thwarting evil organizations and Bluto's criminal activities. The new villains included the numerous Misermite dwarfs, who were all identical. Popeye appeared in the British " TV Comic " series, a News of the World publication, becoming the cover story in with stories written and drawn by "Chick" Henderson.

Bluto was referred to as Brutus and was Popeye's only nemesis throughout the entire run. A variety of artists have created Popeye comic book stories since then; for example, George Wildman drew Popeye stories for Charlton Comics from until the late s. The story presented Popeye's origin story, including his given name of "Ugly Kidd" [15] and attempted to tell more of a lighthearted adventure story as opposed to using typical comic strip style humor. The story also featured a more realistic art style and was edited by Bill Pearson, who also lettered and inked the story as well as the front cover.

The second issue introduced the idea that Bluto and Brutus were actually twin brothers and not the same person, [17] an idea also used in the comic strip on December 28, and April 5, The comic book brought together a large portion of the casts of both the comic strip and the animated shorts, and Popeye and Olive Oyl were finally wed after decades of courtship. However, this marriage has not been reflected in all media since the comic was published. In , a special series of short Popeye comic books were included in specially marked boxes of Instant Quaker Oatmeal , and Popeye also appeared in three TV commercials for Quaker Oatmeal , [20] which featured a parrot delivering the tag line "Popeye wants a Quaker!

Popeye loses either Olive Oyl or Swee'Pea to a muscle-bound antagonist, eats something invigorating, and proceeds to save the day. In this case, however, the invigorating elixir was not his usual spinach, but rather one of four flavors of Quaker Oatmeal. The comics ended with the sailor saying, "I'm Popeye the Quaker Man! For Popeye to call himself a "Quaker man" after beating up someone was offensive to the Quakers and considered a misrepresentation of their faith and religious beliefs.

The Quaker Oatmeal company apologized and removed the "Popeye the Quaker man" reference from commercials and future comic book printings. In November , King Features signed an agreement with Fleischer Studios to have Popeye and the other Thimble Theatre characters begin appearing in a series of animated cartoons. The first cartoon in the series was released in , and Popeye cartoons, released by Paramount Pictures , would remain a staple of Paramount's release schedule for nearly 25 years.

William Costello was the original voice of Popeye, a voice that would be replicated by later performers, such as Jack Mercer and even Mae Questel. Many of the Thimble Theatre characters, including Wimpy, Poopdeck Pappy, and Eugene the Jeep, eventually made appearances in the Paramount cartoons, though appearances by Olive Oyl's extended family and Ham Gravy were notably absent. Thanks to the animated-short series, Popeye became even more of a sensation than he had been in comic strips, and by , polls showed that the sailor was Hollywood's most popular cartoon character.

In every Popeye cartoon, the sailor is invariably put into what seems like a hopeless situation, upon which usually after a beating , a can of spinach becomes available, and Popeye quickly opens the can and consumes its contents. Upon swallowing the spinach, Popeye's physical strength immediately becomes superhuman, and he is easily able to save the day and very often rescue Olive Oyl from a dire situation.

It did not stop there, as spinach could also give Popeye the skills and powers he needed, as in The Man on the Flying Trapeze , where it gave him acrobatic skills. In May , Paramount Pictures assumed ownership of Fleischer Studios, fired the Fleischers and began reorganizing the studio, which they renamed Famous Studios. In late , the Popeye series was moved to Technicolor production, beginning with Her Honor the Mare. Paramount then sold the Popeye film catalog to Associated Artists Productions , which was bought out by United Artists in Through various mergers, the rights are currently controlled by WarnerMedia 's Turner Entertainment.

The series aired Popeye shorts over forty-five episodes, until March While many of the Paramount Popeye cartoons remained unavailable on video, a handful of those cartoons had fallen into public domain and were found on numerous low budget VHS tapes and later DVDs.

When Turner Entertainment acquired the cartoons in , a long and laborious legal struggle with King Features kept the majority of the original Popeye shorts from official video releases for more than 20 years. King Features instead opted to release a DVD boxed set of the s made-for-television Popeye the Sailor cartoons, to which it retained the rights, in In , Warner Home Video announced it would release all of the Popeye cartoons produced for theatrical release between and on DVD, restored and uncut. Three volumes were released between and , covering all of the black-and-white cartoons produced from to In , King Features Syndicate commissioned a new series of cartoons entitled Popeye the Sailor , but this time for television syndication.

The Nintendo videogame Donkey Kong , which introduced its eponymous character and Nintendo's unofficial company mascot Mario to the world, was originally planned to be a Popeye game.

Mario then known as Jumpman was originally supposed to be Popeye, Donkey Kong was originally Bluto , and the character Pauline was originally Olive Oyl , but when Nintendo was unable to acquire the rights to use the actual franchise characters, it decided to create original characters instead.

This faulty measurement was not noticed until the s.
