Just added to the shelves of the AAUGH.com reference library… well, not to the shelves, they’re pretty full, but to one of the piles near the shelves (I really do have to get this all straightened out one day) is It’s Springtime Snoopy, which is really a beginning English language …

Following up on the earlier post on the Japanese Snoopy magazine, I am pleased to announced that we can now identify the object of Snoopy’s affections in this teen dream shot. It’s Italian movie actor Ray Lovelock. And (unlike many teen dreamfuel of the past) Ray is still a successful  …

The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970 will be shipping soon. Should you buy it? Well, yes, of course. If you’re reading the AAUGH Blog, you’re the sort of person who should be buying all these volumes. Why do you even ask me such silly questions? Having just finished reading through it, I …

I have in my slightly-peanut-buttery-smelling mitts the book adaptation of A Charlie Brown Christmas. No, not that one. No, not those. This years. No, not this year’s snow-block adaptation, this year’s non-snow-block edition. Yeah, this one. And yes, this is a brand new adaptation. Someday (not at least a theoretical …

The mailman must like me, because he’s been bringing me a lot of Peanuts goodies lately. Today, it’s an issue of a Japanese Snoopy magazine from the 1970s. And I feel like going through it right now, so here I go. The cover is a particularly low-resolution of Snoopy looking, …

This is 8.5″ high, 5.5″ wide — what small-press comics folks would call “digest sized”. It’s 16 pages, including covers. The back cover is …

There’s a comic book series called Tiny Titans which takes characters from the superhero comic Teen Titans and reimagines them as elementary school kids with far less life-and-death in their conflicts. A lot of it is jokes that it would seem to only be meaningful to those with a working …

Now shipping: It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. What, that’s not specific enough? You’re right. I should say that now shipping is the book adaptation of It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. What, still not specific enough? Okay, it’s the Running Press book adaptation of It’s the Great Pumpkin Charlie …

Well, I’ve got my hands on the Peanuts-covered issue of Racer X Illustrated which I mentioned earlier. It’s apparently not on the stands quite yet — I checked my local Borders yesterday, and they still had copies of the previous issue out (which means that the next issue should be …

Just shipped from Fukuoka to the AAUGH.com reference library is a Peanuts kanji (Japanese handwriting) workbook. Well, it’s kind of Peanuts. There are Peanuts chracters on the cover, and along the edges of 5 of the 88 interior pages. That’s not to say that there aren’t cartoon characters throughout the …
