By Travis Lott Popeye, by all accounts, began as somewhat of a brute. His temper could be sparked by anything he didn’t understand, and he often lashed out with fists at people, animals and even inanimate ob- jects. Elzie Segar liked this approach to the character because it was the obviously humorous way to portray him. An example of this is from the December 23, 1930 Popeye strip in which Popeye is bucked off his horse. Exclaiming, “If ya wants to play rough, why, okay!” Then he turns around and whops the horse across the head, and the horse falls dead. Popeye leans over him, telling the reader that he didn’t pop the “horshie” very hard, that it must have had a glass chin. In “The First Fifty Years” by Bud Sagendorf, the apprentice of Segar explains that Popeye’s brutality was a reaction to the times. Taken from “Popeye, “A population frustrated by the Great Depres- The First Fifty Years” sion liked the idea of one small man fighting by Bud Sagendorf back and winning,” Sagendorf wrote. “They, too, wanted to strike out at something they feared and didn’t understand.” create a new character.
