Bill Blackbeard called Popeye World's First Super-hero. If you agree with him or not he was the first in comics (newspaper strip) to have super human strength. Super-hero or not Popeye is in good company.
730If memory serves, Powerful Katrinka from the Toonerville Trolley comic strip was also extremely strong. Popeye didn't join Thimble Theater until 1929; Katrinka was around well before then. Quibble, quibble, quibble. Popeye rocks nonetheless, as does your art.
