His full name is Ponce de Leon Montgomery County Alabama Georgia Beauregard Possum. He was created by Walt Kelly. The last syndicated comic strip about Pogo ran July 20, 1975.
Kelly described Pogo as "the reasonable, patient, softhearted, naive, friendly person we all think we are."
It is reasonable that Pogo’s most famous quote applies more today than it ever has. "We have met the enemy and he is us."
A lot of wisdom from an possum. I wonder if people will ever figure it out.
