Pogo 6: Clean as a Weasel by Walt Kelly

Hardcover – Fantagraphics – Jan 2020 – 344 pages

In Volume 6 (1959–1960), Albert Alligator and Beauregard Bugleboy fend off a man-from-Mars, and Howland Owl investigates Communist espionage in the postal system. Then, it’s election year and Okefenokee Swamp gets a new presidential candidate, Fremount the Bugboy. His campaign slogan, “Jes’ Fine,” sparks political debates about just who can and should be president — maybe even a woman! Edited by Mark Evanier and Eric Reynolds, with supplementary features by comics historians R.C. Harvey, Maggie Thompson, and Evanier.
