New Peanuts comic book series

Upcoming releases

Peanuts is coming back to the comic book world. Boom! Studios, the same folks who published that nice graphic novel adaptation of Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown, have announced a new ongoing Peanuts comic book series from their Kaboom imprint, featuring “all-new stories”.  It starts with an issue zero in November (that’s a common comics trick to do sort of a preview/lead-in issue; in this case, it will have less story content than a normal issue, plus some preview/making of material, for a buck). After that, it’s a two-month wait until issue 1, after which new issues should come every month. Although not announced, given Kaboom!’s pricing tendency, I would expect the regular issues to be $3.99 each.

If that cover doesn’t look all-new to you, you’re right. The art is recycled from a previous Peanuts comic book – in this case, the last all-new all-Peanuts comic book magazine, Dell’s issue 13, from 1962.
