The Complete Peanuts 1963-1964
Volume 7
(Author) Charles M. SchulzCOMIC STRIP FICTION / GRAPHIC NOVELS. In The Complete Peanuts 1963-64: this volume is particularly rich in never-before-reprinted strips: Over 150 (more than one fifth of the book!) have never seen the light of day since their original appearance over 40 years ago, so this will be a trove of undiscovered treasures even for avid Peanuts collectors. These "lost" strips include Linus making a near-successful run for class president that is ultimately derailed by his religious beliefs (two words: "great" and "pumpkin"), and Snoopy getting involved with a group of politically fanatical birds. Snoopy's doghouse begins its conceptual expansion, as Schulz reveals that the dog owns a Van Gogh, and that the ceiling is so huge that Linus can paint a vast (and as it turns out unappreciated) "history of civilisation" mural on it. With an introduction by Bill Melendez. Ages 6+.
Charles M. Schulz
Charles M. Schulz (1922-2000) was an American cartoonist best known for creating the beloved comic strip "Peanuts." His distinctive artistic style and sharp wit made "Peanuts" a cultural phenomenon, with characters like Charlie Brown, Snoopy, and Lucy becoming iconic figures in American pop culture. Schulz's work explored themes of friendship, perseverance, and the complexities of childhood with humor and heart. His influence on the comic strip genre is immeasurable, and "Peanuts" remains one of the most enduring and influential comic strips of all time.
