one image is up for delection, I am not sure the other image is small enough to qualify for fair use.

The lead feels a bit skimpy to me, perhaps another sentence or two in each paragraph?
Fleischer Studios dissolution section, the first sentence has two "sucessful"s in it, which is repetative. Consider rewording one.
One thing I noticed was that the prose is a bit wordy. Probably a good copyedit before you take it to FAC (if that is the plan) would be a good idea. The prose is readable, and thus easily passes the GA criteria, but the FA criteria is "engaging, even brilliant" which is a bit harder standard to meet.
MOS issue. Usually "see also" comes before the references.
The Current ownership section is unsourced. Right now, it's not so controversial that it needs sourcing, but if you go to FA, you'll need it.
I'm not a fair use expert, but I think you need to keep the fair use images to a small size.
I note that Image:Popeye-floor-flusher.jpg is under deletion discussion.
I've put the article on hold for seven days to allow folks to address the issues I've brought up. Feel free to contact me on my talk page, or here with any concerns, and let me know one of those places when the issues have been addressed. If I may suggest that you strike out, check mark, or otherwise mark the items I've detailed, that will make it possible for me to see what's been addressed, and you can keep track of what's been done and what still needs to be worked on.
