There was this character in the early years of "Popeye" and the 1980 movie named George Geezil; he was one of the people who disliked J. Wellington Wimpy.

He dressed in black and had a long black beard: What I'm wondering is what his nationality (German, Jewish{?}, etc.) is supposed to be?

If any of you remember this "Geezil" character, I would be interested in hearing some genuine feedback on his background; I think he owned a pawn shop at one time.
