DISCLAIMER: “SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™” uses the public domain comic strips "THIMBLE THEATRE" (1919-1929) and “THIMBLE THEATRE STARRING POPEYE” (1929), as well as later lapsed strips (i.e., 1931) in the public domain as basis and inspiration, as well as all public domain "POPEYE THE SAILOR" cartoon shorts from Fleischer Studios, Paramount Studios, and/or Famous Studios , including but not limited to “Lets Sing with Popeye: I’m Popeye the Sailor Man” (1934), "Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor" (1936), "Little Swee'Pea" (1936), "Me Musical Nephews" (1942), and "Spree Lunch" (1957). This is a derivative work of a public domain work and is a parody that also uses satire.

“SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™” is in no way associated with King Features Syndicate, Inc., nor are any claims made against their trademarks. Popeye was created by E.C. Segar.

This comic strip is written out of love, courtesy and respect of the original source material and creators inspired by these public domain vintage comic strips and cartoons. This is an all-ages friendly comic strip and includes mild cartoon-like violence associated with the characters' history.

UPDATE: THRILL SEEKER COMICS™ Rescheduled Releases for 2025

While I have decided to dabble with a public-domain Popeye comic strip this year with the brand new SEA SHANTY FUNNIES™, I have not forgotten our fellow thrillseekers out there...

This year, we have two THRILL SEEKER COMICS™ issues in the making from BANDITO ENTERTAINMENT™ for upcoming release that we had to reschedule from last year's initial plans. 

This summer, watch for the 24-page THRILL SEEKER COMICS™ PRESENTS #1 featuring MS. TITTENHURST™: FINDER OF LOST THINGS in "Case of the Missing Guitar". This issue reprints the entire online web comic strip collected together from 2024 and includes a brand-new four-page epilogue to the story.

This story is co-written with my wife Jennifer.

 

 

This fall, keep your eyes peeled for the EXPANDED 52-page THRILL SEEKER COMICS™ ANTHOLOGY #2 with various stories (Four All-New Tales and Two Remastered Classic Reprints) featuring YELLOW JACKET: MAN OF MYSTERY™, MS. TITTENHURST™: FINDER OF LOST THINGS, THE MIGHTIEST EMERALD MANTIS™, THE BOLD BOWMAN™, and RED DEVIL-BAT™ and his sidekick KID DEVIL-MAYCARE™. This second issue promises to pack a wallop!

 

We will keep you updated when the issues will be available for sale.
