Running Press has announced another one of their “kits”, this one Peanuts Finger Puppet Theater: Starring Charlie Brown and Snoopy! (the exclamation point is theirs.) It’s getting listed in the book listings even though I’m not sure there’s a book involved. It has finger puppets of Charlie Brown and Snoopy, …
There’s a new cover image for Charlie Brown’s Christmas Stocking going around… same basic image as what we had before, but a different color/texture sense. We’ve been working on improving the interior look from what I showed folks at Beaglefest, but the only thing I had to do with this …
Coming next April is a new series of inspirational Peanuts books for kids. Be Yourself! shows examples of positive aspects in each of the Peanuts kids; Be Kind: Peanuts Wisdom to Carry You Through looks at some positive values with Peanuts examples, and Be Brave: Peanuts Wisdom to Carry You …
For those of you who want every bit of Schulz (in more ways than one), coming this October from Fantagraphics is Naked Cartoonists, a collection of undraped self-portraiture by some of the most recognizable names in the comics biz. Sparky is in there, as are other such hotties as Lynn …

I probably mentioned here that the upcoming Charlie Brown’s Christmas Stocking book would be printed in two-color format… even showed some of you some of the art like that. While two-color would’ve been a step up for the material (both stories had been printed simply with black ink originally, albeit …
My one day at Comic-Con happened to coincide with the Boom! Peanuts panel, where they had the creative and editorial folks behind the comic books. If you were looking for a lot of new revelations about the future of the Peanuts comic book, there wasn’t much to be had; they …
I’ve spoken here before about “ghost books”, titles that were once entered into some publisher’s or distributor’s list but never really existed, never really will exist, but due to various computer processes keep getting relisted as coming some time in the future. What we have today is a listing for …
The annual Comic-Con in San Diego is a mere week away, and if you’re there, then there is some Peanuts stuff to look for. In particular, you can grab the comic book pictured here, which is an early copy of the upcoming issue 1 of volume 2 of the Peanuts …
