Digital Snoopy
Coming in March of 2015 is Snoopy’s Happy Day, a finger-puppet book (which I assume means a book with a finger puppet built in, rather than a book accompanied by a finger puppet or a book about making finger puppets.) It’s aimed at age range 1 and up, reading level preschool …
What? They are still doing the Complete Peanuts?
Yes, yes, there are still several more volumes of Complete Peanuts to go before the set is, well, complete. What you see here is the preliminary cover for volume 23, which is now available for preorder. It’s not the cover which we were told at one point we’d get on …
Artist’s Edition coming next week, I really mean it
The comic book store distributor Diamond has the Peanuts Artist’s Edition on this coming week’s shipping list. That indicates that it is already in their warehouse and is being boxed up now to go out. So it really should hit those comic shops that ordered it (which will be far from …
Artist’s Edition date set
IDW has announced that the Peanuts Artist’s Edition will hit comic book stores next Wednesday, June 11th This does not mean that Amazon will necessarily get them, much less ship them, on the same date. The method of delivery to Amazon is different from the path to the comics shop. …
Probably not the real valentine
Amazon has posted this cover for the January 2015 release of another small hardcover strip collection from Fantagraphics, A Valentine for Charlie Brown: Now, usually I would say that this is the cover for the book… but Fantagraphics pretty regularly changes their covers from the initial solicitation, and not just in minor …
What’s up with the Artist’s Edition

The Beagle has Landed cover
Here’s the actual cover art for the coming-in-June original graphics novel The Beagle Has Landed, Charlie Brown, obviously much more appropriate than the not-the-real-cover that Amazon is still showing. But one thing that the Amazon site has very right at the moment is the price… as I check it, it’s …
Pictures of Peanuts Philosophy
Here are the covers for this fall’s Peanuts Guides to Life series: Philosophy of Snoopy, The Wisdom of Woodstock, The Genius of Charlie Brown, and Life Lessons from Lucy. These books aren’t being offered in the US… which is why those links go to The Book Depository, a UK book source that offers free shipping …
I’m running out of titles for posts displaying new covers
Here are the covers for two upcoming Peanuts books: Cheer Up, Charlie Brown and the new edition of Good Grief, It’s Your Birthday. Both are available for preorder.
Free Comic Book Day is tomorrow!
Free Comic Book Day is tomorrow. It’s a great day when most comic book shops in North America (and many elsewhere) give away free special-edition comics to people just for stopping in. Some shops will let you pick just one comic (and hey, that’s a deal), some will give …
