Comic-Con report
Saturday was my one day at the San Diego Comic-Con for the year. The past two days, I’ve been recovering from it. The convention was sold out, as it always has been for years now… but the show floor was less crowded than usual. Oh, there were still plenty of …
Peanuts booth items, Comic-Con 2022
I’ve managed to get my hands on a picture of the special items that will be offered at the Peanuts booth at Comic-Con later this week. Unfortunately, what I’ve not been able to get my hands on is any text description of what these items are. So here I’ve marked …
Franklin stuff at Comic-Con
So once again they’re going to have a Peanuts pop-up “experience” (read: interesting display, with some items for sale) that is near but outside the convention, which means it will be open to folks who were not able to get into the con itself. This year, it’s themed “All Things …
Peanuts panels at Comic-Con 2022
The full planned schedule for this year’s Comic-Con International: San Diego (or as everyone calls it, the San Diego Comic-Con) is now out. There are two planned Peanuts-centered presentations. There’s the official one put together by the Peanuts people: Celebrating 100 Years of Charles Schulz Friday, July 22, 2022, 12:30 …
San Diego Comic Con – come see the filmstrips
Some of you have been asking about whether you’d get to ever see any of the Charlie Brown’s Career Education Program filmstrips. Well, if you’re going to be at the San Diego Comic-Con this year, this is your chance! On Saturday July 23 (tentative), Schulz Museum curator BENJAMIN L. CLARK …
Peanuts stuff at Comic-Con
So, I’m back and mostly recovered from Comic-Con. I had somehow missed the message that there would be another pop-up shop, this one focused on Peanuts and the space program. What were they selling? Reproductions of a 1960s Peanuts space-themed banner. And skateboard decks. Of course. Meanwhile, one of the …
What is and is not exclusive at that Peanuts offsite
As I mentioned a couple posts back, the Super7 store in San Diego will be doing a Peanuts pop-up within the shop starting on the Friday of San Diego con. The earliest release made it sound like this was just a launch for their products, but (alas for those who …
blatantly cool Peanuts toys/not toys
One of the nifty things about how the San Diego Comic-Con has grown over its 50 years of existence (I’ve only attended… oh, probably 30. Egad.) is that the convention has outgrown the convention center and spills out for many blocks around. Various companies and groups, not wanting to pay …
Pop! goes the Snoopy
If you want to get all the Comic-Con exclusive Peanuts space items, you’ll have to go beyond the Peanuts booth. Head on over to the Funko booth, and stand in line, and you’ll be able to buy this Astronaut Snoopy figure. I admit, as much as I like some Pops, …
Peanuts Comic-Con exclusives 2019
Well, the legendary San Diego Comic-Con is just around the corner… timewise, that is. Physically, it’s down in San Diego, which is like a month’s walk from where I am and even more from you. Anyway, as always, it’s far too late to get a ticket, which are hard to …
