Members holster Posted August 10, 2009 Members Share Posted August 10, 2009 more Popeye trivia: Eugene the Jeep is a character in the Popeye comic strip. A mysterious animal with magical abilities, the Jeep first appeared in the March 16, 1936 Thimble Theatre strip (now simply "Popeye"). It has been theorized that the Jeep vehicle was named after this character: soldiers in World War II may have nicknamed the machine after the then-popular character because they shared an ability to "go anywhere".
