POGO COMP SYNDICATED STRIPS HC VOL 8 HIJINKS FROM THE HORN OF PLENTY

Collects the years 1963 and 1964 of the classic newspaper strip whose political satire feels more timely than ever. Using the platform of Pogo, Walt Kelly 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. Each volume contains two full years of restored black-and-white daily strips plus all 104 Sundays from the same period. For the first time since their original appearance more than 50 years ago, the Sundays are in full, glorious color.
