One day I was waxing poetic about what a genius move it was when they named the female character "Olive Oil", and how much fun it was to say that name in Popeye's voice. My wife looked me with disappointment in her eyes like I was a child missing the simplest concept and said just two words to me. "Extra virgin."
Randy Milholland, creator of "Something*Positive", occasionally posts threads of Popeye lore on the company once known as Twitter. His deep knowledge of it helped land him the job of creating new Sunday strips, as well as alternating with another cartoonist on a Tuesday/Thursday "Olive and Popeye" strip.
