- Walt Kelly’s Pogo, acknowledged as one of the most important
and influential comic strips of all time, first appeared not in newspapers but
as a feature in the Dell comic book anthology Animal Comics, as well as
in Dell’s Four Color Comics before getting its own title, Pogo
Possum, in 1949. It was here, in the four-color world of comic books, that
the feature and its characters grew and matured, ultimately becoming one of the
world’s most famous comic strips.- Now fans of Pogo can see it all from the beginning with Hermes
Press’ reprint of the complete Dell Comics Pogo. Noted comics
historian Thomas Andrae observed that with Pogo, “Walt Kelly
created a strip that is both poetic and graphically stunning as well as an
important commentary on our times.”- With Hermes Press’ complete reprint of Dell Comics Pogo,
admirers of this groundbreaking comics feature can now witness the strip’s
evolution, in an archival hardcover, digitally reconstructed to perfection.- This volume reprints Pogo Possum issues #3-6.
