A Slightly Popeye Blog

My blog for today (April 16) is about the early American TV days of Japanese Anime. The Famous Studios Popeye is discussed as a possible influence, and possibly as the only truly Non-Disney influenced (either as an imitation of, or a reaction against) cartoon.

If it is no longer up on the home page when you get to it, it will be accessible as a link to archived blogs on the left side of the home page.

Really too long to post here (and I now write it in HTML so it would look funky), but if you want to start a discussion of it here, I would not be averse to such a thing.

Wow, really nice blog, Mike. You really are an accomplished student of animation. The other postings were entertaining as well. Are you employed in some sort of field where you write professionally?

Right now, the Blog is something I'm doing for no pay, just for exposure. I can't work otherwise now, being on disability, so this is what I'm concentrating on. This is going to be my next career if it is not that already. I am not meant for the machinations of water-cooler Machiavellis.
