Now available for preorder: Complete Peanuts 1975-1976

The Complete Peanuts: 1975-1976, the thirteenth volume in the series, is now available for preorder. This one covers the halfway point of the Peanuts run. The cover of this one will have Peppermint Patty. The foreword is by Robert Smigel, the puppetry hand behind Insult the Comic Dog and the animator behind Saturday Night Live‘s “Saturday TV Funhouse” feature, which is perhaps best known for the Ambiguously Gay Duo. “Saturday TV Funhouse”, which plays off of TV animation, has looked in on Peanuts a few times… and if you have any doubt of Smigel’s affection for Peanuts need only recall the episode where Jesus visits the earth and is saddened by much of the modern world… but is ultimately cheered by watching A Charlie Brown Christmas.
