Free Comic Book Day isn’t until May 2, but they’ve already announced the participating books (so that retailers can order them). And yes, there will be some Peanuts content in the free comic being issued by Boom!, but given the ten different series they intend to showcase in the book, expect …

Coming in September is another trio of Peanuts storybooks in the Great American Adventure line from the conservative imprint Little Patriot Press. I Declare, Charlie Brown! looks at the founding of the country (“Declare” as in “Declaration of Independence”, I take it.) It’s a New World, Charlie Brown! goes back to …
