As 2014 draws to a close, I remember all the wonderful friends who have been so loyal and supportive ever since Animan's World began. It's my sincere wish that the Animan ideal continue improving, and growing. I appreciate all the helpful suggestions and ideas, positive and not-so-positive, sent to me or posted on other blogs during the past few years. Thanks, Guys. 

Today, Animan's World posts a photo that pays homage to both the world of classic animation and the world of gay culture: "Variety Shop Popeye Group"!  I'm pretty sure that Elzie Crisler Segar never dreamed that his comic strip creation would one day grace the billboard of a snazzy gay porn shop located somewhere in Tokyo.
