Another Comic-Con Peanuts Exclusive

Comic book Peanuts

PeanutsSDCC19
In case you’re not already regretting not going to Comic-Con enough, there’s one more Peanuts exclusive being offered. A variant cover of issue 19 of the Kaboom! Peanuts comic book, which has a story on Snoopy’s search for his sister Belle is offered, copying the style of the “first appearance” alternate covers that Kaboom! offered on earlier issues. Limited to 500 copies, this one will run you $10 at the Boom! Studios booth. But just to reassure you, I checked the IDW exclusives, and they are not listing some Comic-Con-exclusive alternate cover for the Peanuts Artist’s Edition, something they actually have done with some earlier Artist’s Editions released around this time of year. (I’m glad not to be spending $100 or so to get a second copy of an Artist’s Edition just to keep the collection complete… and then having to lug that door all around Comic-Con for the rest of the day!)

A new comic at Comic-Con

For some reason, the usual announcement of what would be for sale at the Peanuts booth this year just hasn’t shown up. Then cartoonist maze-maker Joe Wos dropped this image on social media: Beagle Scouts’ Life (the name is a play on the Boy Scouts of America magazine, which used …
