Ilustration During Books The Complete Peanuts, Vol. 1: 1950-1952 (The Complete Peanuts #1)
This first volume, covering the first two and a quarter years of the strip, will be of particular fascination to Peanuts aficionados worldwide: Although there have been literally hundreds of Peanuts books published, many of the strips from the series' first two or three years have never been collected before—in large part because they showed a young Schulz working out the kinks in his new strip and include some characterizations and designs that are quite different from the cast we're all familiar with. (Among other things, three major cast members—Schroeder, Lucy, and Linus—initially show up as infants and only "grow" into their final "mature" selves as the months go by. Even Snoopy debuts as a puppy!) Thus The Complete Peanuts offers a unique chance to see a master of the art form refine his skills and solidify his universe, day by day, week by week, month by month.This volume is rounded out with Garrison Keillor's introduction, a biographical essay by David Michaelis (Schulz and Peanuts) and an in-depth interview with Schulz conducted in 1987 by Gary Groth and Rick Marschall, all wrapped in a gorgeous design by award-winning cartoonist Seth.

I. Love. Peanuts. It's just SO my comic, just my shade of depressing.Peanuts really reflects life, depicts little kids with grown-up problems, and you can really identify.I picked this book up at a fantasy/comic store on a theatre trip to Oslo, I'd been wanting it for months, and my only regret now is that I can't afford the 1952-1953 Peanuts right now. Put it on my wishlist for later.I dont think Ive seen these early Peanuts strips before, at least not the majority of them. In these brand-new days, though Charlie Brown is put-upon, hes also a jokester, running away, laughing, from his target. Snoopy is just a cute puppy: silently laughing at the humans is the most human thing he does. Lucy is eventually introduced as a toddler, a few years younger than Charlie Brown and his friends, and before too long we get the first instance of her snatching away her football as Charlie
When I was growing up, the Peanuts comic strip was ubiquitous. There were always old paperback collections of the strips around the house, along with book tie-ins from the TV specials, and each Scholastic book club order form at school would feature more. In the Sunday paper, Peanuts occupied the prime outside-page real estate (Blondie on one side, Peanuts on the other). So even though I havent really thought about it specifically like this, Im now pretty sure that Peanuts had a lot to do with
I never really 'got' Peanuts. My exposure to Charlie Brown and his friends came sporadically, reading a comic strip here and there when I saw them and I never found them particularly funny or cute. Well, not usually, but I did have a soft spot for Snoopy. The only reason I delved into this volume was it came up as a Prime item and I thought 'what the hey, it's free.' I've had this type of experience with TV series - catching random episodes of a comedy and wondering what all the fuss was about
Early Peanuts is so awesome. Charlie Brown isn't yet the loser he'll become; he's just one of a group of kids who enjoy each other while occasionally giving each other a hard time. He's an equal member of the group and often an instigator in teasing and mischief. Initially, the group is him, Shermie, Violet, and Patty (not Peppermint; the other one whom nobody remembers these days, but will recognize when they see her). And Snoopy is there of course, but he's not clearly identified as Charlie
2010: Wow! I had no idea! I always thought Peanuts was kinda take it or leave it. (Except, obviously, the movies.) But these are EXQUISITE! 2018: Excuse me but these are perfect.
This is the origin of Peanuts... and it's as good as the 70s version I grew up with.But with some very interesting changes.This is a younger set of children than you may be used to; this is the tricycle generation. Snoopy is much less a person, although has more personality, likes and dislikes than the average dog.Early strips start with Charlie Brown, Patty (but not the Peppermint variety), Violet, Shermie, and dog Snoopy with no apparent owner. Charlie Brown gets his striped shirt within a few
