Volume 1 - 1st printing. "Through the Wild Blue Wonder (1949-1950)!"
Story and art by Walt Kelly. Foreword by Jimmy Breslin.
Our first volume (of 12) collects approximately the first two years of Pogo dailies and, for the first time, full-color Sundays. First created in the 1940's, Pogo blended nonsense language, poetry, and socio-political satire, presaging later strips such as Doonesbury and The Boondocks. Special features in this premiere volume include a biographical introduction, an extensive glossary by comics historian R.C. Harvey and a foreword by legendary columnist Jimmy Breslin.
