Popeye

Popeye the Sailor is a series of animated short films based on the fictional cartoon character created by Elzie Crisler Segar. In 1933, Max and Dave Fleischer Studios adapted Segar's characters into a series of Popeye the Sailor theatrical cartoon shorts for Paramount Pictures. The Popeye characters appear in the comic strips like: Bluto the evil villain, and his "sweetie" girl named Olive Oyl. Bluto clobbers Popeye when he eats spinach, which gives him superhuman strength and battles with him.

The original voice of Popeye was played by William "Billy" Costello.
