Bluto, at times known as Brutus, is a cartoon and comics character created in 1932 by Elzie Crisler Segar as a one-time character, named "Bluto the Terrible", in his Thimble Theatre comic strip (later renamed Popeye). Bluto made his first appearance on September 12 of that year. Fleischer Studios adapted him the next year (1933) to be the main antagonist of their theatrical Popeye animated cartoon series.[31]

Many an animation historian has tried to figure out which Popeye cartoons produced by the Fleischer Studios featured Jack Mercer performing Bluto's voice. His vocal characterization is so good that it's hard to identify which exact films he did. When the Fleischer Studios moved from New York to Florida, some of their voice personnel did not make the move. The Fleischers needed a new voice for Bluto and after unsatisfactory results in Ghosks is the Bunk (1939) and Customers Wanted (1939), a gruffer-sounding voice for the bully was heard in Wotta Nitemare (1939) and It's the Natural Thing to Do (1939), provided by voice-over artist Pinto Colvig. Colvig's performance sounded similar to the Mercer-voiced bullies of later vintage. For Bluto's next few appearances during Fleischers' tenure on the Popeye series, Colvig was heard in Shakespearean Spinach (1940), Me Feelings is Hurt (1940), Nurse Mates (1940), Onion Pacific (1940) and Fightin' Pals (1940). Mercer owned up to trying the Bluto role, and stated it was difficult for him to voice both Popeye and Bluto in the same cartoon, so perhaps, in between Wotta Nitemare and It's the Natural Thing to Do and the 1940s cartoons, he and other voice artists had a go at voicing Bluto (a more sophisticated-sounding Bluto was heard in Stealin Aint Honest from 1940, provided by Tedd Pierce). Mercer's Bluto can be heard in a few lines, though Dave Barry and Lee Royce performed the role, in Fleischer Studio's Olive Oyl and Water Don't Mix (1942) saying, "Why that one-eyed Casanova," and "Watch me play sick," in Too Weak to Work (Famous Studios, 1943). Both times this occurred, the character's mouth didn't move and it appears Mercer's Bluto voice was dubbed in.
