Inhaltsangabe

In the 22nd volume of The Complete Peanuts, new in paperback, Schulz’s cartooning has never been more expressive, and the strip continues to surprise and delight. Welcome Andy to the cast of characters, as all three dog brothers reunite to cheer on Snoopy, who bounces back from a bout of pneumonia. In other news, Charlie Brown is a baseball hero after hitting a game-winning home run. Linus lobbies the White House to nominate Snoopy for an open Supreme Court seat (alas, he doesn’t make the cut). And Woodstock discovers his long-lost grandfather’s diary, recounting the indignities of life trapped in a (gasp!) birdcage.

The Complete Peanuts is the publishing project that launched a renaissance in comic strip publishing and the only place Charles M. Schulz’s classic has ever been collected in its entirety. Featuring impeccable production values, each volume of this series features two successive years of newspaper strips (dailies and Sundays), plus bonus material such as celebrity introductions, interviews, and a brief biography of Schulz himself.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Charles M. Schulz was born November 25, 1922, in Minneapolis. His destiny was foreshadowed when an uncle gave him, at the age of two days, the nickname Sparky (after the racehorse Spark Plug in the newspaper strip Barney Google). His ambition from a young age was to be a cartoonist and his first success was selling 17 cartoons to the Saturday Evening Post between 1948 and 1950. He also sold a weekly comic feature called Li'l Folks to the local St. Paul Pioneer Press. After writing and drawing the feature for two years, Schulz asked for a better location in the paper or for daily exposure, as well as a raise. When he was turned down on all three counts, he quit.

He started submitting strips to the newspaper syndicates and in the spring of 1950, United Feature Syndicate expressed interest in Li'l Folks. They bought the strip, renaming it Peanuts, a title Schulz always loathed. The first Peanuts daily appeared October 2, 1950; the first Sunday, January 6, 1952. Diagnosed with cancer, Schulz retired from Peanuts at the end of 1999. He died on February 13, 2000, the day before Valentine's Day-and the day before his last strip was published, having completed 17,897 daily and Sunday strips, each and every one fully written, drawn, and lettered entirely by his own hand -- an unmatched achievement in comics.
