5.0 out of 5 stars
Kelly's funniest, a must-have for fans,
By Kelly fan in Philly (Philadelphia, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: POGO PANORAMA (Paperback)
Kelly is widely regarded as one of the very best comic-strip artists ever (along with folks like George Herriman of "Krazy Kat" and Al Capp of "Lil' Abner" fame). This Simon & Schuster reprint gathers 3 long out-of-print Pogo books. The books feature the characters from Kelly's daily strip, in a series of longer stories created just for these books, plus wonderful nonsense poetry and stories that don't use the characters from the strip (but are just as much fun). The artwork is gorgeous (even his lettering, much of it done with a paintbrush and in different typestyles for different characters, is masterful), the writing sparkles, and the emphasis is on humor (much of it with a topical spin, but without the pointed satire of Kelly's anti-McCarthy material). As good as it gets.
