Summary: Lotsa Laffs.
Comment: "Pogo" is side-splittingly, screamingly funny. The southern-fried gumbo dialect, absurd notions, manic action, and lush artwork put slapstick, satire (plenty of satire, you'll learn a li'l history reading Pogo), and recycled old vaudville gags in a congenial mixture that stands up extremely well two generations after the strips in this volume were penned. The forewards to the strips are helpful for us young 'uns that don't get all the silly Adalai Stevenson gags. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys the funnies.

Rating: 3
Summary: Second time around, still a fun book
Comment: I have previously purchased all ( over 20 ) of the POGO comic strip collections. This book did not add any new material, but since it is a current printing ( some of mine date to the 1960's and all are in paperback ) with high quality printing, I think it is a keeper. By the way, I am not a "serious" book collector, I buy books I want to read, share, and have fun. None of my collection is for sale, and no "serious" collector would want paperbacks with pages falling out and wrinkled covers, but for me -- for me, the delights of having my Dad read POGO while putting on special voices for Pogo, Albert, Churchy, Howland Owl, Deacon muskrat, and lots of other critters...

This is a fun book.

Summary: Previously reprinted in "The Incompleat Pogo"
Comment: Rick Fung is mistaken when he writes that these are previously uncollected strips. I purchased the book for someone who already owned "The Incompleat Pogo", and so far we've been unable to find anything that wasn't included in the earlier collection.

Worth buying if you don't have access to the larger out-of-print collections, but a great disappointment to us -- it's heading for the used bookstore....
