Stuffed Snoopy saves the day
There’s a category of Peanuts media that’s about the impact of Peanuts toys helping people get through hard times – this includes such things as the video The Big Stuffed Dog and the military tale The Little Toy Dog. To those, you can add the new Kindle e-book Blue Bunny …
that Peanuts comic book
I stopped by Meltdown Comics on Wednesday and picked up a couple copies of issue 1 of the new Peanuts comic book…. Meltdown is a bit out of my way, but they were having a signing by Shane Houghton and Matt Whitlock, the writer and artist of one of the …
Die Peanuts!
