Walt Kelly's Pogo #6
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis sixth volume in Hermes Press's comprehensive hardcover series collects Walt Kelly's complete Pogo comic book stories originally published by Dell Comics, featuring the beloved Okefenokee Swamp denizens in their full satirical and whimsical glory. It includes issues from the early 1950s, showcasing Kelly's masterful blend of political commentary, wordplay, and timeless cartooning artistry.
In "Teeth For Two," Albert’s romantic delusions take a whimsical turn when he channels his inner dandy, inspired by "The Three Musketeers," and sets out to rescue a damsel in distress—only to find his grand adventure leads him to the unlikely heroics of saving Miz Beaver from Beauregard’s flour-dusted antics. Written, drawn, and inked by Walt Kelly, this 2018 Hermes Press reissue captures the signature wit and charm of the original comic strip, with Kelly’s expressive art bringing the forest’s oddball cast to life on every page.
Albert Alligator, struck by the spirit of adventure after reading "The Three Musketeers," declares himself a knight-errant and demands Pogo Possum be his loyal valet. When Albert rushes to rescue a damsel in distress, his grand quest leads him to Miz Beaver—only to find she’s just brushing flour off her fur, with Beauregard Bugleboy nearby, and Pogo quietly amused.
Bun Rabbit, Beauregard Bugleboy, Pogo Possum, and Churchy Lafemme pay a visit to Bun’s hard-of-hearing uncle, where Beauregard attempts to captivate him with a wild sea tale—though the uncle’s hearing loss makes the storytelling a far more humorous challenge than expected.
