Pogo The Complete Syndicated Comic Strips Box Set: Vols. 7 & 8: Pockets Full of Pie & Hijinks from the Horn of Plenty (Walt Kelly's Pogo). Product Description Collects the years 1961 through 1964 of the classic newspaper strip whose timeless political satire feels more timely than ever.

Walt Kelly's newspaper comic strip Pogo was a platform for Kelly to express political satire and commentary via a wildly entertaining, motley group of swamp critters. He tackled many of the sociopolitical issues of his day: the Red Scare, civil rights, the environment, consumerism. But the strip is also a joyous, poignant, beautifully drawn, and occasionally profound work of 20th-century popular culture.

Edited by comics legend Mark Evanier and Fantagraphics Associate Publisher Eric Reynolds, with supplements and resources by comics historians R. Harvey and Maggie Thompson, each volume has a surprise foreword. Jake Tapper, Sergio Aragonés, and Neil Gaiman have contributed. Each dust jacket spotlights gorgeous, hand-painted "collaborations" between Kelly and cartoonist Linda Medley, the acclaimed creator of Castle Waiting. Color and Black & white Review This comes as a genuine gift to anyone who loved Pogo and, it is to be hoped, as an introduction for younger readers to what many people believe was the best comic strip ever drawn in this country. The Washington Post We are blessed that Walt Kelly inhabited his skin for as long as he did, no doubt dying a comfortable man? All the while making the right people uncomfortable. Jake Tapper In these uncertain times, Pogo feels necessary, feels relevant, feels ever-more-right. Neil Gaiman About the Author Walt Kelly is the creator of the legendary Pogo comic strip.
