Along with reprints of the daily and Sunday POGO comic strips, Walt Kelly also published a few volumes of all-new material featuring his Okefenokee stock company including UNCLE POGO SO-SO STORIES. Here you’ll find a couple of the stories from that book.

Pappy offers a couple of unusual instances of unique stylist Bernie Krigstein’s attempts to “fit in” with DC’s 1950′s sci-fi house style-” The Snows of Mars” and “The Atomic Invasion.”

Speaking of unusual, here are two stories featuring the slick inking of EC great Al Williamson over the pencils of Jack Kirby! They’re followed up by Williamson inking Reed Crandall and Al on his own abetted by Angelo Torres and Roy Krenkel, all from Harvey’s BLAST-OFF # 1 from 1965, consisting of previously unpublished 1950′s leftovers.

Finally, today’s almost mandatory holiday link is to a recent post from MAIL IT TO TEAM-UP which shares my all-time favorite superhero Christmas story-DC’s original TEEN TITANS in 1967′s “The TT’s Swinging Christmas Carol” by the much maligned (and usually deservedly so) Bob Haney with some of Nick Cardy’s best artwork ever!
