Snoopy eats sushi
Here’s the new and presumably final cover for the upcoming original Peanuts graphic novel It’s Tokyo, Charlie Brown, now available for preorder, shipping in November. And hey, speaking of Peanuts comic book covers, check out this cool reinterpretation of the cover of Dell’s Peanuts issue 13 cover from the 1960s.
a more colorful Christmas Stocking
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 …
the San Diego Peanuts panel
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 …
The return of Baby Snoopy?
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.

Peanuts the comic book book book 2
Coming in March: Peanuts Vol. 2, presumably reprinting the next batch of the Ka-Boom Peanuts comic books. (Not that it’s actually news that there will be Peanuts books next year. The sound-button version of Easter Beagle had already been solicited, making for Peanuts book next year, and I’m preeeeeeetty sure …
Charlie Brown and Snoopy are trapped in a sealed ball of water
Here we have a picture of the upcoming A Charlie Brown Christmas Snow Globe Mini Kit, which includes a small snow blog and a 32 page booklet with color illustrations – which means it’s likely an abridgement of the 48 page adaptation of A Charlie Brown Christmas that Running Press …
The Zipper on My Bible is Stuck at Beaglefest
Both of the books I’m debuting at Beaglefest were, as I noted, samples which I designed when trying to pitch gift books to publishers targeting the Christian specialty market. God’s Children, which I discussed in an earlier message, was to be calm and black-and-white. But I wanted a sample in …
