After Paramount's contract to produce Popeye cartoons ran out in 1957, King Features acquired the television rights. Brodax oversaw the production of over 200 new shorts in 1960–62, with five different animation studios simultaneously involved. The rapid pace of production, coupled with limited animation due to low budgets, resulted in shorts that are held in low esteem by "Popeye" fans. Brodax was also the producer of King Features' animated revival of Krazy Kat, as well as "Cool McCool", "Beetle Bailey", "Snuffy Smith", and "Casper the Friendly Ghost" (1963–64 segments of "The New Casper Cartoon Show").
