Story and art by Walt Kelly.

In this collection of Pogo strips from 1951 - 1952, Albert gets into a poetry contest with the Rhymin Worm. Carnivores try to frame Churchy for mail fraud so they can eat him. Walt Kellys combination of political satire, character comedy and beautifully rendered artwork inspired numerous later artists, from Jim Henson to Jeff Smith to Calvin and Hobbes Bill Watterson.

Volume 1 - 1st printing.

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, in its first issue, in 1942. It was here, in the four color world of comic books, that Kelly developed the feature and its characters, who grew and matured, ultimately becoming one of the world's most famous comic strips. Volume One features all of the Animal Comics Pogo stories together with complete reprints of Pogo's appearances in Dell's Four Color comics. This book also boasts numerous examples of original artwork from these stories as well as scholarly essays from noted Pogo historians.

Hardcover, 7 1/2-in. x 10-in., 272 pages, full color.

1st printing. By Walt Kelly. Pogo Will Be That Was (1979) is an omnibus of two Pogo classics: Positively Pogo (1955) and G.O. Fizzickle Pogo (1957). Positively Pogo are comic strips from around 1954 first published in newspapers. This part starts with the start of the television media with various characters doing things to break into commercials and shows. The strip then meanders into a plan by Churchy (the turtle) to make money by making money. We have a long appearance by a non-regular character (in the form of a pig) which just happens to look like a certain Soviet leader of the time (part of Kelly's political humor). The book then ends with the Olympics in Australia. Softcover, 384 pages, B&W. Cover price $9.95.

By Al Columbia and Ethan Persoff. Al Columbia teams up with Ethan Persoff to collaborate on a tale about a man with an inescapable malaise. Persoff's flat drawing style captures perfectly the empty world of Audrey, a mostly incompetent member of a design firm who doesn't want the meager responsibilities he has. But we never quite know if Audrey is drifting through it all or if he's a brilliant manipulator thanks to Columbia's always-sublime writing. 32 pages, B&W. Mature Readers. Cover price $4.95.

1st printing. By James Eric Black. One of the most popular comic strips of the 1950s and the first to reference politics of the day, Walt Kelly's Pogo took on Joe McCarthy before the controversial senator was a blip on Edward R. Murrow's radar. The strip's satire was so biting, it was often relegated to newspaper editorial sections at a time when artists in other media were blacklisted for far less. Pogo was the vanguard of today's political comic strips, such as Doonesbury and Pearls Before Swine, and a precursor of the modern political parody of late night television. This comprehensive biography of Kelly reveals the life of a conflicted man and unravels the symbolism and wordplay of his art for modern readers. Softcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 228 pages, B&W. Cover price $39.99.

1st printing. Written by Kerry D. Soper. Art and cover by Walt Kelly. A critical appreciation of the life's work of a great comic strip artist - We Go Pogo is the first comprehensive study of Kelly's cartoon art and his larger career in the comics business. Author Kerry D. Soper examines all aspects of Kelly's career--from his high school drawings; his work on such animated Disney movies as Dumbo, Pinocchio, and Fantasia; and his 1930s editorial cartoons for Life and the New York Herald Tribune. Soper taps Kelly's extensive personal and professional correspondence and interviews with family members, friends, and cartoonists to create a complex portrait of one of the art form's true geniuses. From Pogo's inception in 1948 until Kelly's death, the artist combined remarkable draftsmanship, slapstick humor, fierce social satire, and inventive dialogue and dialects. He used the adventures of his animals--all denizens of the Okefenokee Swamp--as a means to comment on American and international politics and cultural mores. The strip lampooned Senator Joseph McCarthy during the height of McCarthyism, the John Birch Society during the 1960s, Fidel Castro during the Bay of Pigs fiasco, and many others. Kerry D. Soper, Orem, Utah, is associate professor of humanities, classics, and comparative literature at Brigham Young University. He is the author of Garry Trudeau: Doonesbury and the Aesthetics of Satire, also published by University Press of Mississippi. Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 272 pages, B&W. Cover price $65.00.
