About this Collection

This volume collects the final Dell Comics issues of Walt Kelly's beloved Pogo newspaper strip adaptation, featuring the full run of Pogo Possum and his Okefenokee Swamp friends from 1953-1954. It includes the complete stories and covers from Pogo issues #9-12, showcasing Kelly's signature blend of whimsical art, satirical humor, and memorable characters like Churchy LaFemme and Albert Alligator. This hardcover edition continues Hermes Press's comprehensive reprint series of Kelly's classic comic book work.

In "Dental Exam," Walt Kelly's classic swamp denizens take a turn at frontier justice when Howland insists the swamp needs law and order—prompting Albert to leap at the chance to be sheriff. With Howland and Churchy staging a dramatic rescue, the real test of Albert’s courage is about to begin. Written, drawn, and inked by Walt Kelly, this 2017 Hermes Press reissue captures the whimsy and wit of the original strip, with Kelly’s signature cover pencils and inks bringing the antics to life.
