The Exciting Conclusion To The Popeye Snuff Comic
Yesterday, every child who's ever had a dream when watching Popeye that one day Olive Oyl would be portrayed in a snuff comic had the best day of his or her life. (Not that any of these people exist, but let's pretend.) Yesterday's Popeye comic strip featured Olive Oyl gleefully laughing as she pointed a gun at her head, ready to end her life.
Today, the story gets weirder, kinda.

Okay, so it was all a joke. What makes this strip almost as disturbing as yesterday's is this: In today's third panel, all three characters' brains (as small as they are) are replaced with dogs' brains. Popeye is going "Arf," Olive Oyl with boobs is going "Grr," and Olive Oyl herself is drinking from a fairly unsanitary location.
You know, fake suicide jokes could be funny, I guess, if they were actually funny. I am interested to see where this dog plotline goes, though. Maybe Popeye will sniff Bluto's ass!

The most shocking thing here is that there is still a Popeye comic strip.

When it comes to great rivalries, Popeye and Bluto may have the greatest of all time.

Bluto's a dumbass, he should forget about that skinny chick and go after Glenn "Hurricane" Schwartz (I hear she looks great in a bikini).

While it might be shocking that there' still a Popeye comic strip, these are reruns from the 70's and 80's. Wonder if there was any outrage at the time ... there certainly wasn't a very visible place to air it.

That was a dumb comic strip. Popeye should've dumped Olive Oyl after seeing Glenn "Hurricane" Schwartz in a bikini.
