Jonathan Yardley Profiles Pogo

imageI found this through Mr. Evanier's site first, although a number of people also graciously e-mailed me this straightforward literary appreciation by Jonathan Yardley at the Washington Post of Walt Kelly's newspaper strip masterwork. It's a nice look at a project that one expects will be revived in major fashion at some near future date for collection. Yardley even shares my affection for the original books, the consistent use of language in even the less flashy ways, and the earlier strips over the later ones.
