Friday Funny: Courtesy of Popeye the Sailor and Bluto

I haven’t posted a Friday Funny in a while but this one came across my desk and there’s nothing like a good classic. In honor of Shakespeare’s most tragic love story, here is a little pre-show weekend fun: Popeye the Sailor, Olive Oyl, and Bluto in Shakespearian Spinach Epidosde # 76 (January 19, 1940). If only Juliet had had some spinach!

Have a great weekend. Go see some Shakespeare!
