[–] Grass@sh.itjust.works 42 points 3 days ago

jesus wtf. I was never into popeye but I didn't expect it to be like this

[–] DaddleDew@lemmy.world 83 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I can only imagine the following panel of Popeye crushing a can of spinach open and then the next panel after that is an ambulance parked in front of their house, along with a police car.

A quick search found the following panels here, if anyone is interested:

Olive Oyl revealing her tentacle fetish wasn't in my bingo card.

[–] JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social 53 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Well, dang!

A lot of the old Popeye hasn't aged too well for me, often being on the repetitive and dull side, but this sequence is hilarious, sharp, and has aged really well IMO. So... we're looking at a date of... Dec 19th, 1937, is it?

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 38 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I did some searching and I'm seeing 1937 and 1938, so yeah, that's probably about right.

[–] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 2 days ago

"Disgustipated" was coined by E.C. Segar in his syndicated comic strip Popeye. Earliest known use was 1938.

I only knew it as a Tool song. Neat.

Didn't realise my favourite hentai was such a classic!

[–] Fontasia 88 points 3 days ago

It's requests like that which end in torn perineums

[–] TheThrillOfTime@lemmy.ml 67 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Is this real? Did they really have Olive Oyl asking Popeye to ruin her pussy?

[–] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 147 points 3 days ago (6 children)

It looks real, and the follow-up gets weirder.

[–] TheThrillOfTime@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago

That is fucking wild

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 4 points 2 days ago

To be fair, having eight arms would definitely make you a better hugger.

[–] Glytch@lemmy.world 35 points 3 days ago (4 children)

Ah yes "The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife"

[–] SharkAttak@kbin.melroy.org 1 points 13 hours ago

Or fiancé, in this case. My god.

The book she's reading is likely manga, the cover is on the reverse. She knows about tentacle hentai.

[–] JackbyDev@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago

Have you read the translation of the writing on the edges of that? It's already lewd, and I wasn't expecting it to be less lewd or anything, but it was so much lmao.

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 11 points 2 days ago

“Disgustipated” origin story? Fascinating.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 55 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Oh my gawd, her feet in that last cell

[–] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 23 points 3 days ago (2 children)

You know that thing where stick someone in a latex sack and suck all the air out of it so it compresses them? I feel like she would be into that.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Now that's some well-pressed Olive Oyl

[–] bear@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 2 days ago

A vac bed? I could totally see her in some shined latex.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Look again at the first cell. They're even more fucked up.

[–] fartographer@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

It's like she's trying to dam up Niagra

[–] palordrolap@fedia.io 44 points 3 days ago

Secondary shock from this: Popeye was a redhead?! How have I gone this long without knowing that?

Sure, later media has him keep his hat on or else he has only a few wispy hairs if any at all, but I feel like I should have seen this at some point in the past few decades.

Of all the things I didn't expect to learn about Olive Oyl...

I kinda want to check something on AO3 right now.

[–] A_norny_mousse@feddit.org 35 points 3 days ago

Those really weren't for kids, were they

[–] RizzRustbolt@lemmy.world 40 points 3 days ago

Bust her back, Popeye. She's screamin' for it.

i mean mood

[–] derry@midwest.social 10 points 3 days ago

Hmmm this shows up right after the post on pegnog. Oh Popeye. New meaning to the poop deck.

Next week: accused of domestic abuse and divorced with all his money taken away. Also told he ruined her life by not wrecking her ribs.
