The dreaded missing “not”

Whoooops!
The previous blog entry had a wrong link, a cut’n’paste error. The correct link for 80% off Complete Peanuts volume 6 is here. And hey, as long as I’m wasting a blog entry… if anyone wants to see a photo of me with a few Peanuts books, it’s here. (They …
Remember: Unseen Peanuts tomorrow
Just a reminder that tomorrow (Saturday, May 5th) is Free Comic Book Day. The press has really been picking up on Unseen Peanuts, so while there are a lot of copies of it out there, many folks will be looking for it. So don’t dally! (And don’t overlook the other …
The Slightly Glimpsed Peanuts
Having read through my copy of Unseen Peanuts (being given out for free on Free Comic Book Day next Saturday — yes, my elves have secured me a copy already), I should note that in addition to having about 150 strips that were not in US reprint books until the …
