r/popeye

Hey guys - so, this is my version of Popeye. It takes place in South Africa, so a lot of the jokes are local - but that is its audience.

I'm self publishing a comic anthology of 5 page complete stories of PD characters and selling it in my shops (toys, comics and collectibles) and online

The reason is two-fold (maybe 3)

1. I want to give exposure to local south african artists, so i have been speaking with some to add their own stories
2. I want to print cheap comics - my idea is to sell these at 99c USD (around there, exchange rates fluctuate)
3. Bonus - it is another item to sell in my store and its a nice way for me to make 5 page complete stories as 'exercise' between issues of my main comic which i also self publishing

Would be great to get your feedback

Other stories in the anthology currently (being worked on)

Buck Rogers
Black Terror
Red Riding Hood

Each with their own spin of course

Popeye back in the day. It seems these black and white episodes from Fleischertoon are apart from Paramount? Plus I learned there are other episodes in color made in Russia.

Popeye fans please can you explain me?

hey popeye fans! I'm trying to make a mii of Olive but nothing is looking right

First two slides: this is a pre set hair that looks perfect from the front but doesn't have her iconic ponytail

second 2: I tried to make this myself with options that they had but the slicked back hair looks uncanny but the ponytail is exactly like hers

last one: This is a pre set hairstyle that technically does have both elements but the hair looks too long and the flips throw it off it doesn't really look like Olive Oyl anymore

any other tips would be super appreciated especially with pictures!

Hello, everyone, this is a question I wanted to ask since I have been wanting to get this dvd. I usually use Amazon as my go-to buying place for dvds and blu-ray, but I have been cautious about this one. The dvd is "Popeye the Sailor: Volume One: 1933-1938". Some reviews on amazon chose the one that ships from "Lennies Corner Store", but apparently those are just DVD-Rs. The one that I want to get however, is the one that ships from Amazon. The reason I am cautious is because I am worried about getting DVD-Rs in a simple case like the other option instead of the pressed disc box set, like how its supposed to be. I don't want to get it off E-bay either, because this Popeye dvd is one of the many Warner Video dvds that have succumbed to disc rot, and I am also afraid that I will get a rotted/unplayable disc if I order it off there. If anyone owns this dvd, please tell me if there were any issues with the discs. Thank you for understanding.

With World Cup still going, here's Popeye as a soccer player.
