Pogo Treasury Giant: Midcentury Comics #228--- His earliest comic book adventures! All his friends of the wild!

Today most newspaper strip collectors, historians, and readers know the kind and loveable but socially conscious Pogo Possum, created by comic master Walt Kelly. He humorous and entertaining adventures, sprinkled with a fair dose of subtle social and political commentary and metaphor, are popular classics, and for many Pogo is nothing short of Walt Kelly's masterpiece. What many aren't aware of, though, is that Pogo took the reverse route of many comic characters; he started in the comics and only later moved to the newspapers for his decades-long run. ALSO, Pogo Possum wasn't the star of the show; that distinction belonged to his friends, the boy Bumbazine and Albert the Alligator, and Pogo was a back-up character whose popularity grew over the years until he was promoted to his own stories/strips. Our POGO TREASURY collects his stories that are in the public domain – a small part of the overall library, but still a healthy dose of POGO-LISCIOUS fun! We have three great volumes: VOLUME 1 – First appearance and stories from ANIMAL COMICS VOLUME 2 – Four Color #105 & #148 and POGO POSSUM #2-3 VOLUME 3 – POGO POSSUM #4-8 THIS GIANT – ALL THREE VOLUMES IN ONE! MIDCENTURY COMICS AMERICA'S GOLDEN AGE OF COMICS AND POP CULTURE PUBLICATIONS THE MOST OF THE BEST FOR THE LEAST Welcome to the best way to enjoy those rare and expensive comics you long to read – but either cannot afford, or cannot find! MIDCENTURY COMICS are not digitally remastered, cleaned-up, brand new versions. We use scans of the original comics, and that means they will show the scrapes and scars and wear and sometimes the damage that come from being three generations old. We will always make them the best we can, but if you are ever unhappy we will refund your money no questions asked. Our comics are designed to be the most affordable editions that modern print-on-demand technology can provide. So, we're using a standard color process, which is more economical, but still provides that color-comic experience collectors and readers crave. It is not quite as flashy, but you can afford more color comics, don't have to settle for black & white, and still have that experience – you might even be able to imagine you smell the newsprint!
