Three fantastic stories… out of a couple dozen?!?

With Costco getting out of the book business, I thought we might have seen the end of Costco-exclusive Peanuts books already, but such appears not to be the case. Today I happened upon The Peanuts Gang’s Grand Adventures, a hardcover which combines Snoopy Soars to Space, Adventures with Linus and Friends!, and Batter Up, Charlie Brown! into a single volume. The cover says it “includes three fantastic stories” which is pretty funny, because those three volumes are the “graphic novel” line, which despite the name are books that each collect several stories from the Boom! comics (with one new tale per volume.) So…. three fantastic stories and twenty pretty good ones? I wrote one of the stories, I hope it’s one of the fantastic 0nes.

I think this is an exclusive; neither a title search nor an ISBN search shows any other sources. Priced at a mere $10.99 for a 480 page color hardcover, it’s quite a deal if this is the sort of material that you want.
