Make no mistake-although officially Popeye's cartoon, one J. Wellington Wimpy is the star here. Wimpy is (or should be) the icon for the American approach to consumerism-"I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today." Wimpy never worries about that far off Tuesday, when his hamburgers will come home to roost (no doubt with indigestion not far behind), he just wants his hamburger today and hang Tuesday. Wimpy reminds me a lot of W. C. Fields' persona-he too was always concerned with current results, regardless of future consequences. Both also have just a touch of larceny in their heart. Wimpy is my favorite character in the series and his appearances were always too brief and too rare for my taste. Much better sidekick than the rather annoying Shorty ever was or could be. Here's to you, Wimpy, wherever you are. May all your days be Wednesdays. Well worth seeking out. Most Recommended.
