Has there ever been a comic strip, or any other publication, that so artfully combined the literate, the classicly allusive, the gentility and the downright hilarity of Pogo? Walt Kelly wrote that he never considered himself a satirist. He felt that the limitations imposed by the vastness of his readership, forbade such subtlty. He compared himself, unfavorably, to Jonathan Swift. Well, I've read Gulliver's Travels and, maybe it's just me, but I didn't think the Liliputians were as funny and clever as those three bats, Bewitched, Bothered and Bemildred, upon being told that something (I disremember what) was, both, typical and new, said, individually and in sequence, "Typical?", "New?", "And Tyler, too?"
