Walt Kelly Takes On Senator Joseph Mccarthy In The Form Of Wildcat Simple J. Malarkey (A Controversial Move At The Time) And More In This Collection Of Years 19531954 Of The Seminal Midcentury Newspaper Strip. Its In This Volume (Featuring Another Two Years Worth Of Pogo Strips) That We Meet One Of Walt Kellys Boldest Political Caricatures. Folks Across America Had Little Trouble Equating The Insidious Wildcat Simple J. Malarkey With The Ascendant Anticommunist Senator, Joseph Mccarthy. The Subject Was Sensitive Enough That By The Following Year A Providence, Rhode Island Newspaper Threatened To Drop The Strip If Malarkeys Face Were To Appear In It Again. Kellys Response? He Had Malarkey Appear Again But Put A Bag Over The Characters Head For His Next Appearance. Ergo, His Face Did Not Appear. (Typical Of Kellys Layers Of Verbal Wit, The Character Malarkey Was Hiding From Was A Rhode Island Red Hen, Referencing Both The Source Of His Need To Conceal Malarkey And The Underlying Political Controversy.) The Entirety Of These Sequences Can Be Found In This Book. But The Malarkey Storyline Is Only A Tiny Portion Of Those Rich, Eventful Two Years, Which Include Such Classic Sequences As Conman Seminole Sams Attempts To Corner The Market On Water (Which Porkypines Uncle Baldwin Tries To Oneup By Cornering The Market On Dirt); A Return Engagement Of Pup Dog And Houndogs Blankeyed Little Orphan Annie Parody Lil Arf And Nonny; Churchy La Femme Going In Drag To Deliver A Love Poem He Wrote, Cyrano Style, On Deacon Mushrats Behalf To Sis Boombah (The Aforementioned Hen); P.T. Bridgeports Return To The Swamp In Search Of New Talent; And Of Course Two Rousing Choruses Of Deck Us All With Boston Charlie.
