I really hope they keep this title

Upcoming releases

Coming in May of next year, as the 18th entry in the series of full color Peanuts strip reprints is…. Snoopy Summer 2025 Kids Collection . Finally, they’ve found a title that has not already been used before! Presumably, that is just a holder title until they fall back on some burst of imagination and call it Snoopy and Friends or somesuch.

Before that, we are being treated to a reprint of Snoopy and the Red Baron, the original (well, derived from the strip, of course, but all new art) that Schulz created in the 1960s. At least, that’s what I presume it is — it has the right title and the right cover, but the publisher’s blurb for it says it “features 64 pages of Sunday Peanuts newspaper in full-color strips first published in 1966.” That’s not a descriptor of that book at all, which was not made of Sunday strips nor was it “full color” in. Meaningful sense, but rather black ink on colored paper. So, ”all color”, arguably, but ”full color”, no. This whatever-it-is drops in April.

That book I told you I found at Costco last week? The local store is out of it already. You gotta luck out to even find out about these things, much less find one.

Not all strip reprints are books

Coming next April is Happiness is a Postcard, a boxed set of fifty “unique” (by which they mean there are no repeats in the box) postcards. And some of them, going by the promo image, are reprints of Sunday strips. So that doesn’t count as a “book” for my list of …
