Jeeps are strange hybrids of wild dogs and alien, fourth dimensional cells. They're found in Africa or some other exotic locale. The size of a small dog, they appear as somewhat bear-like (myabe), often bipedal creatures, with longish tails. Jeeps are highly intelligent, though incapable of speech. They tend to communicate via body language. Jeeps are able to teleport (without error) short distances--in a manner simpler to blink dogs. The creatures are also able to pass through solid (nonmagical) objects, or walk on ceilings, or even levitate in midair.

There was a lot of weirdness in those old Popeye cartoons. I'd be curious to go back and watch some them with adult eyes. I know that as a child had a definite love/hate relationship with the spinach-munching sailor.
Love the old Popeyes. I actually statted some Popeye characters and creatures a while back - I probably should post them tonight.
There seems to be a lot of gaming potential in the comic strips (such as the Sea Hag) that never made it into the cartoons. I think the Jeep appears in only two animated shorts, although eh was more important in the strips. Too bad, as my daughter likes him.
There certainly is a lot of game adaptable weirdness in Popeye. It (like several other old comic strips) are secondary inspirations for the world of the City.
