in the original b&w (and the best) popeye cartoons from the 30s; he was bluto…although he made his debut as ‘barnacle bill’…these are the one i love nd still watch
in the 50s the name was changed to brutus for some stoopid reason…these are the one i don’t waste time on…
I think it was a case that the creator started a character that he named Brutus and didn’t realize it was going to be so popular a part of the series and later got tired of the first name choice and made it Bluto. I’ll check.
No, it was the other way around, and the reason was more prosaic but understandable
Thanks. Now I’m going to worry about this all night, right after I stop worrying about beer, but if I stop worrying about beer, I might not be worrying about anything. Oh!!, the question. I always thought he was Bluto. I liked to follow the dialog in the fights.
I never noticed.
