The History of the Real Popeye
His real name was Frank "Rocky" Fiegel.
He was born in 1868, in Poland and, as a child, immigrated to the United States with his parents, who settled down in a small town in Illinois.
As a young man, Rocky went to sea.
After a 20-year career as a sailor in the Merchant Marines, Fiegel retired.
He was later hired by Wiebusch's Tavern in the city of Chester, Illinois as a ‘Bouncer’ to maintain order in the rowdy bar. Rocky quickly developed a reputation for always being involved in fighting (and usually winning). As a result, he had a deformed eye ("Pop-eye"). He also ‘always’ smoked his pipe, so he always spoke out of one side of his mouth.
In his spare time as a bouncer, Rocky would entertain the customers by regaling them with exciting stories of adventures he claimed to have had over his career as a sailor crossing the ‘Seven Seas.’
The creator of Popeye, Elzie Crisler Segar, grew up in Chester and, as a young man, met Rocky at the tavern and would sit for hours listening to the old sailor’s amazing ‘sea stories.’ Years later, Segar became a cartoonist and developed a comic strip called ‘Thimble Theater.’
He honored Fiegel by asking if he could model his new comic strip character, ‘Popeye the Sailor Man,’ after him. Naturally Fiegel was flattered and agreed.
Segar claimed that ‘Olive Oyl,’ along with other characters, was also loosely based on an actual person. She was Dora Paskel, owner of a smallgrocery store in Chester.

On January 17, 1929, Popeye the Sailor Man, makes his first appearance in the comic strip 'Thimble Theater'. Popeye was created by Elzie Crisler Segar. The Thimble Theatre strip was in its 10th year when Popeye made his debut, but the one-eyed (left) sailor quickly became the main focus of the strip, and Thimble Theatre became one of King Features' most popular properties during the 1930s.

"Pochi sanno che il personaggio di Popeye (Braccio di ferro) esisteva davvero. Il suo vero nome era Frank "Rocky" Fiegel, nato in Polonia nel 1868. Emigrò con la sua famiglia in America dove, nel 1887, si arruolò in Marina.
Per stare con i bambini, teneva sempre la pipa con l'angolo della bocca e raccontava loro le buffonate della sua giovinezza, spesso vantandosi della sua forza fisica e sostenendo ad alta voce che gli spinaci sono il cibo che lo rende invincibile.
Il creatore del personaggio di Popeye, Elzie Crisler Segar, è nato a Chester ed è stato uno dei bambini che ha avuto il privilegio di ascoltare "dal vivo" le storie dell'ex marinaio."

Popeye the Sailor Man is a fictional cartoon character created by Elzie Crisler Segar.[39][40][41][42] The character first appeared on January 17, 1929, in the daily King Features comic strip Thimble Theatre. The strip was in its tenth year when Popeye made his debut, but the one-eyed sailor quickly became the lead character, and Thimble Theatre became one of King Features' most popular properties during the 1930s. Following Segar's death in 1938, Thimble Theatre was continued by several writers and artists, most notably Segar's assistant Bud Sagendorf. It was formally renamed Popeye. The strip continues to appear in first-run installments on Sundays, written and drawn by R.K. Milholland. The daily strips are reprints of old Sagendorf stories.[41]
In 1933, Max Fleischer adapted the Thimble Theatre characters into a series of Popeye the Sailor theatrical cartoon shorts for Paramount Pictures.[43] These cartoons proved to be

"Popeye", herausgegeben vom Marebuchverlag im August 2006, ist eine Sammlung, die das Herz jedes Comic-Fans höherschlagen lässt. Sie vereint die legendären Comic-Strips, die den unverwechselbaren Seemann Popeye in den Mittelpunkt stellen. Die ursprüngliche Figur, geschaffen von Elzie Crisler Segar, begann als Nebencharakter in der Comic-Serie "Fingerhutbühne", wurde jedoch rasch zur Hauptattraktion und entwickelte sich zu einer der bekanntesten Comicfiguren überhaupt. Diese Sammlung konzentriert sich auf die "Goldene Ära" von Popeye, die von 1929 bis 1938 reicht. Diese Zeitspanne ist besonders interessant, weil sie die ungefilterte, ungeschliffene Natur von Popeye zeigt. Der echte Popeye war damals noch kein kinderfreundlicher Held. Er war ein rauer Seemann, bekannt für seine Flüche und seine robuste Art, weit entfernt von der späteren Version, die mehr auf das jüngere Publikum zugeschnitten war. Die Ausgabe bietet auf fast 500 Seiten sowohl die farbigen Sonntagsseiten als auch die schwarz-weißen Tagesstrips. Einer der Höhepunkte ist die Geschichte "Plünder Eiland" aus den Jahren 1932 und 1933, in der Popeye mit Salzbacke Bill Barnacle und Olivia nach einem Piratenschatz sucht. Dieser Abschnitt zeigt auch die Vielfalt der Nebencharaktere, die Popeyes Welt bevölkern, wie das "giftige Seeweib" und "Alice die Wumme". Ebi Naumanns Übersetzung verleiht dem Werk eine besondere Note, indem sie Popeye eine unverwechselbare Stimme auf Deutsch gibt. Diese Übersetzung bleibt dem Original treu, fügt aber eine frische Perspektive hinzu. Die Ausgabe im Album-Querformat ist sowohl einfarbig als auch vierfarbig gestaltet, was den Lesern einen umfassenden Überblick über Popeyes frühe Abenteuer gibt. Insgesamt ist diese Sammlung eine unverzichtbare Bereicherung für Fans klassischer Comics und bietet einen tiefen Einblick in die Geschichte einer der einflussreichsten Comicfiguren aller Zeiten. Sie zeigt Popeye in seiner ursprünglichen Form, bevor er sich in den späteren Jahrzehnten zu einem familienfreundlicheren Charakter entwickelte.

EL VERDADERO POPEYE😱👇
Su verdadero nombre era Frank "Rocky" Fiegel.
Nació en 1868, en Polonia y, cuando era niño, emigró a los Estados Unidos con sus padres, que se establecieron en un pequeño pueblo de Illinois.
Cuando era joven, Rocky se fue a la mar.
Después de 20 años de carrera como marinero en la Marina Mercante, Fiegel se retiró.
Más tarde fue contratado por Wiebusch's Tavern en la ciudad de Chester, Illinois, como un "bouncer" para mantener el orden en un bar ruidoso.
Rocky rápidamente desarrolló una reputación por estar siempre involucrado en peleas (y generalmente ganar). Como resultado, tenía un ojo deforme ("Pop-eye").
Él también "siempre" fumaba su pipa, así que siempre hablaba por un lado de su boca.
En su tiempo libre como portero, Rocky entretenía a los clientes regalándolos con emocionantes historias de aventuras que afirmaba haber tenido a lo largo de su carrera como marinero cruzando los Siete Mares. ’
La creadora de Popeye, Elzie Crisler Segar, creció en Chester y, de joven, conoció a Rocky en la taberna y se sentaba durante horas escuchando las increíbles historias del marinero. ’
Años después, Segar se convirtió en dibujante y desarrolló una tira cómica llamada 'Thimble Theater. ’
Honró a Fiegel preguntando si podía modelar su nuevo personaje de tira cómica, 'Popeye el marinero' después de él. Naturalmente, Fiegel se sintió halagado y estuvo de acuerdo.
Segar afirmó que "Olivia Oyl", junto con otros personajes, también se basaba vagamente en una persona real. Ella era Dora Paskel, dueña de una pequeña tienda de comestibles en Chester.
Aparentemente se parecía mucho al personaje de Olivia Oyl en sus cómics.
Afirmó que ella incluso se vestía de la misma manera.
A través de los años, Segar se mantuvo en contacto con Rocky y siempre le ayudó con dinero; dándole un pequeño porcentaje de lo que ganó con sus ilustraciones de "Popeye".
¿A quién no le encantaron las caricaturas? Los vimos religiosamente... Tan divertido, tan moral... cada historia tuvo un buen final... ¿Quién sabía que era un hombre de verdad

′′ Few people know that Popeye's character (Arm wrestle) really existed. His real name was Frank ′′ Rocky ′′ Fiegel, born in Poland in 1868. he emigrated with his family to America where in 1887 he joined the Navy.
When he was with children he held the pipe with the corner of his mouth and told them the antics of his youth, often boasting of his physical strength and loudly claiming that spinach is the food that makes him invincible.
Popeye's character creator Elzie Crisler Segar was born in Chester and was one of the children who had the privilege of hearing ′′ live ′′ the stories of the former sailor."
