In 2010 Tom Neely created a mini-comic called Doppelgänger in which a character named "döpeye" has an existential crisis and beats himself up for several pages.

Neely did pencils, inks, lettering and colors on the complete issue #3, as well as the Sappo back-up stories in issues #2 and #4.
Doppelgänger is NOW reprinted in Pastiche #1 - Buy it in the “Book Store” of this site
Döppelganger was reprinted in the Fantagraphics collection Treasury of Mini Comics Volume 2
Popeye Volume 1 collects all three of the Popeye stories.
