| | Don Markstein's Toonopedia: Popeye the Sailor |
 | | Popeye made his first animated appearance in Betty Boop Meets Popeye the Sailor (1933), one of several cartoons in which the popular Fleischer cartoon star met various comic strip characters, in hopes that some might prove popular enough to merit cartoon series of their own. |
 | | In 1980, Popeye was made into a live-action feature film, starring Robin Williams as Popeye, Shelly Duval as Olive Oyl, Paul Smith as Bluto, and Ray Walston as Popeye's father, Poopdeck Pappy. |
 | | Popeye appeared on a U.S. postage stamp in 1995, but that's nothing special so did Flash Gordon, Terry & the Pirates, Brenda Starr, and lots of other "Comic Strip Classics". |
