Reach for your wallets, folks

Andrews & McMeel is coming at you this fall with a big, thick hardcover of Peanuts strips featuring Snoopy, covering the entire run of the strip. Celebrating Snoopy carries a list price of $75, so this is one of those cases where I suggest ordering early, and letting Amazon’s we’ll-give-you-the-lowest-price-between-preorder-and-shipping policy take hold; that usually gets a nice discount. It looks like it’s the same format as Celebrating Peanuts – same page count, basically same size. Introduction on this one is by Washington Post comics columnist Michael Cavna.
