Infrogmation<p>I don't think I've seen another cartoon career like Elzie Segar's. <br>Something quite different from common taking time and practice to grow into potential. <br>After a few youthful cartoons, he plugged away for a full decade at "Thimble Theater", an ok but rather middling strip.<br>Then it starts getting better. Then more better. Then exponentially better. Continuing to improve until Segar's young death in 1938. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Popeye" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Popeye</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Segar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Segar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/cartoons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cartoons</span></a></p>

Infrogmation<p>This is the Popeye that becomes public domain on 1 January. Certainly not the one from Fleischer nor more recent animated cartoons. <br>The already public domain characters of Castor Oyl, Harold Hamgravy and the amazing Bernice the Whiffle Hen are joined by a scruffy old sailor sidekick.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/comics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>comics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/cartoons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cartoons</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Popeye" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Popeye</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/Segar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Segar</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/PublicDomainDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PublicDomainDay</span></a></p>
