DISCLAIMER


DISCLAIMER: “SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™” uses the public domain comic strips "THIMBLE THEATRE" (1919-1929) and “THIMBLE THEATRE STARRING POPEYE” (1929), as well as later lapsed strips (i.e., 1931) in the public domain as basis and inspiration, as well as all public domain "POPEYE THE SAILOR" cartoon shorts from Fleischer Studios, Paramount Studios, and/or Famous Studios , including but not limited to “Lets Sing with Popeye: I’m Popeye the Sailor Man” (1934), "Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor" (1936), "Little Swee'Pea" (1936), "Me Musical Nephews" (1942), and "Spree Lunch" (1957). This is a derivative work of a public domain work and is a parody that also uses satire.

“SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™” is in no way associated with King Features Syndicate, Inc., nor are any claims made against their trademarks. Popeye was created by E.C. Segar.

This comic strip is written out of love, courtesy and respect of the original source material and creators inspired by these public domain vintage comic strips and cartoons. This is an all-ages friendly comic strip and includes mild cartoon-like violence associated with the characters' history.

SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™ Blog: Early Sneak Preview


Here is a little sneak peek of the "daily strip" with my revived SEA SHANTY FUNNIES series featuring the public-domain Popeye that I am writing and illustrating. I did some test full page comic strips earlier this year with Popeye. I took some time to write some scripts this year and assess if I wanted to continue. I do. I think there seems to be some genuine interest from some of you out there and I'm having fun writing and drawing these comic strips. I want to thank the feedback I received that encourages me to continue.
