- Author Existence Failure: Walt worked himself basically to death, trying (with his wife, Selby) to animate his own Pogo special while keeping the daily strip going, making it due to his dissatisfaction with the Chuck Jones Pogo special.
- Disowned Adaptation: Walt Kelly despised the animated Pogo Birthday TV special made by Chuck Jones, mainly for mucking about with what Kelly wanted, and how "he took all the sharpness out of it and put in that sweet, saccharine stuff that Chuck Jones always THINKS is Disney, but isn't." Considering Kelly was a former Disney animator, he wasn't saying that lightly.
- Keep Circulating the Tapes: While several book collections were published during the strip's run, all of these are long out of print.
