It’s Loopy!

The Amazon listing for the hardcover collecting Lucy-themed comic book stories has updated. The official title listing has changed from Charles Schulz’ Lucy to Charles M. Schulz’s Lucy – the middle initial, an s after the apostrophe… that’s the way it should be. And there’s a cover… which doesn’t have “Schulz” in any form, possessive or otherwise.

And then there’s these opening lines from the description:

Charles M. Schulz’s Peanuts continue with brand new adventures and classic tales! Featuring a best of collection Snoopy’s comic book adventures.

This is what happens when you use a previous release as a template. Or maybe Snoopy is sneaking into this book the way he snuck into that second sentence! (Wait, is that even a sentence?? It grammar not sense make!)
