the Snoopy panel

Thanks to everyone who came by the Snoopy panel yesterday at Comic-Con. All of the panelists had their own way of looking at Snoopy, we got to find out who on the panel had a Snoopy tattoo (answer: not me!), favorite strips were shared, audience questions were fielded, and everyone seemed to have a good time.  There were also some pleased sounds coming from the Creative Associates staff on the quality of the upcoming first book in Fantagraphics’ collections of color Sunday strips (go preorder; at the moment, it’s a third off cover.) There was a guest appearance by the guy who is doing those cool Vine animations of Peanuts. All in all, the audience seem to have a good time.
