>be passively aware of Peanuts>it's that comic that does those Christmas specials>bored, so decide to actually read some comics and watch some Apple TV movies>this is what I do in my free time nowAnyways, PP and Marcie are totally into each other
I like the way you think OP
>>144580797but paddy is into chuck
Schulz deserves to be considered one of /co/'s titans. The man was a machine for more than 50 years, and at his best he did comics as good as anyone. I tip my hat to him.
>>144580941>at his best he did comics as good as anyoneWhat a ringing endorsement.
>>144581054Lmaooo
>>144580797>Anyways, PP and Marcie are totally into each otherJust popped in to tell you to kill yourself.
>>144581054Why is Patty annoyed? She's got the horn for Chuck, she'd like their hips touching together.
>>144581054The school collapsing sounds like a better fit for Simpsons than Peanuts
>>144581759Classic tsundere
>>144580797This bait again.
>>144581759She's not comfortable with how much she's liking it.
>>144581814If that's a tsundere then that's the calmest fucking tsundere I've ever seen
>>144581759If she doesn't like it, she blames you, even if it was her fault.
>>144581827Probably doesn't. Her ass isn't terribly big.
>>144581807It was already tossing bricks at students.
>>144580797Post more.
>>144583085Marcie's such a goofball when she's in her element
>>144583189Why did she jump off a window?!?
>>144583307she got told to leave the theater for laughing too looudhence why she's blushing from the shame
>>144580797>two girls stand next to each other>they must be gay
>>144581759Her heart wasn't prepared.
>>144583189A reminder that the recent special based on Macie being shy was bullshit.
Shit, didn't realize today was the day Marcie first showed up
>>144583423I think it's what alot of people normally classify her as since they haven't read the comic strips. Suckst tho cause there is more to her character than just smart nerd with glasses.>>144583695Oh really? Well fuck it Marcie thread
>>144580797The point of this comic is she's jealous of her, not Charlie. God, gay revisionism is a fucking plague.
>>144580797I honestly hate fags that see a straight character they relate to and feel the need to create a headcanon for that character to explain why they like them. No, queerbaiting is not real, you're just insecure.
>>144583802Marcie is the most brutal character. Lucy is blunt, but she's mostly talk.
>>144580850They're both into him.
>>144584413Lucy's bum bow makes me hard.
>>144584413damn bratty girl...
>>144584033I feel like if Peppermint Patty or Marcie ever got into a fight with Lucy, even if one loses the other will just step in and finish the job
>>144581759They're children
>>144583423I mean even OP pic contradicts that idea pretty blatantly.
>>144584413FIFY
Apple ruined her.
You know most of the timewhen I reread the strips I usually stay in the sixties cause it's nice see how different early Chuck is compared to the current Chuck. Now it's much more interesting to see how different Marcie is to how she portrayed in the modern specials.
peanuts is lame, one of the least favorite strips to skim over in my local paper's pages.
>>144586144aaaahahah Lucy fart
>>144580797>Threadly reminder that this is all part of Marcy's horny nerd girl long-game of getting all 3 of them together.
>>144586903Unironically based, fuck ship wars
>>144583423Actually yeah that special seems to have forgotten how savage Marcie is in the comics
>>144580797>literally post an image where the 2 friends are competing to cuck each other with the man they both love>"anyway they're both dykes"Terminal yuri brain.
>>144588088It's a deliberate irony. The tomboy is a self-doubting worrier while the nerd is a sarcastic savage.
The shy Marcie special was just some headcase writer making her into a self-insert for ego masturbation.
>>144581807They live in the upper Midwest, man. Snow collapses roofs sometimes.
>>144583695>our translation of Peanuts translated Marcie's "sir" as "boss" for some reasonI don't think the translator had read this strip.
>>144583802>I think it's what alot of people normally classify her as since they haven't read the comic strips.It's not how she's like in the old TV specials, either. She's not the savage she is in the strips, more a comical weirdo, but she's still not shy.
>>144590263Well if that's the case, I'd have to agree with >>144589978. It reminds me of the apple Lucy special were she has this whole thing of 'Am I a jerk?'
>>144580797Marcie is into Charlie Brown, you fool
>>144584423Everyone forgets Marcie is totally into Charlie Brown
>>144590738Clockwork Orange isn't really gory or anything. It's a mainstream movie. It's just '70s.
I don't have anything really relevant to contribute (other than early Chuck being a bit of a jerk), but I enjoyed Marcie in this thread. Fun to know that there were characters bucking stereotypes even in Peanuts (especially in peanuts? I dunno).
>>144591907Artist or found on threads?
>>144592132
>>144583390RIGHT?I hate that shit.They take one glance at something and start proclaiming that a character is one way or another, when they barely know anything about them or the property they're from.At a glance, they'll say that two characters are gay for each other, or that someone's "obviously" ace, or autistic, or trans. Pick your pride flag stripe/color/shape, there is someone who will try like hell to project their own flavor of abnormal onto a fictional character, even if they have to ignore that character's ENTIRE history to do so."Oh, you mean Marcie and Patty both spend half their time in the strips either pining for Charlie Brown, talking about how much they like him, or being upset that he's hung up on other girls? Clearly they're in lesbians with each other."If you do this, it is most definitely a personality flaw, and I guarantee it is one of the reasons people can't fucking stand you.Given the religious proclivities of Charles Schulz, the social mores of the era in which he grew up, it's safe to say he didn't include that shit in his strip. The further back in the strip you go, the less likely any of that nonsense becomes. His big move was including a black character, and he put it off because he knew nothing about being black, and didn't want to come off as patronizing toward black people.He was certainly not pairing Marcie and Peppermint Patty off as a lesbian couple.Some people need to face the fact that if it's outside the norm of a one man and one woman, heterosexual, relationship, it's not going to be in these older franchises, much less celebrated. It wasn't usually talked about, it wasn't accepted, it was rarely even tolerated, and it certainly not in strips that started in the 1950s.When homosexuality did start showing up on TV, it was usually as a comedy gag (let's all point and laugh), or it was part of some "very special episode." Most comic strips still wouldn't touch that kind of thing for a decade or so, if ever.
Should I just read them in order, how do I get started. These are really cute
>>144593018Patty wasn't added into the strip for years from the beginning
>>144593018The Wika is the most complete of all the strips online. While you can start in whatever year you want ,Patty and Marice show up in the 80s. '83 iirc I would highly recommend starting from the beginning. It's nice to see the cast grow from the original 5 and how they get where we know them now. https://peanuts.fandom.com/wiki/April_1951_comic_strips>>144592132Nah, Smeet did it a while ago. He was taking requests. I wonder if he'll show...or maybe Magi will pop up. He the one who did the pic here >>144586903

>>144593309>Patty and Marice show up in the 80s. '83 iircPeppermint Patty's first strip was in August of '66. Marcie's was July of '71.

>>14459301850s are alright but the strip's peak is the 60s i'd recommend starting there
>>144593825lol. I dig the reference to Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown, too.

Are any of the cartoons any good or should i just give the comic strip a read, I've only seen the cgi movie.
LOL
>>144596710I haven't seen For Auld Lang Syne and Welcome Home Franklin but some Peanuts fans I know seem to like them, I liked One Of A Kind Marcie but common consensus seems to be that movie was ass, To Mom (and Dad) With Love was a solid movie imo, the Cartoon Network series is a direct adaptation of the comics but I'm not too big on the animation style, and The Snoopy Show looks solid but as you can tell from the title that show focuses heavily on Snoopy

>>144596941I'll clean it up another time
>>144591186Marcie is extremely aggressive about how into Charlie Brown she is too, it's surprising.
>>144592132Patty seems to have a bit more personality here.
>>144594082The strip starts to go down in quality around the 90s I feel. Not that it's unreadable, but you can start to tell that Schultz was starting to run out of ideas.
>>144596069>>144596570Oh shit they both showed up. Hello Smeet, Magi, hope you both are well.

>>144596710They're different in tone and some charecterzation, but many are fun or otherwise decentI liked some of the weirder ones like Bon Voyage, Charlie Brown for its melancholic tone and the one where Snoopy has a vivid dream of being a sled dog and has to transform from pampered pet to savage animal to survive compeitition with the rest of the sled team.
>>144597524Peanuts really is a romcom anime sometimes.
>>144596069Fucking hot, we need more aggressive nerds nowadays.

>>144601234
I just finished reading all 50 years of Peanuts recently, AMA.>>144596710A large proportion of the Peanuts specials/movies are worth watching, with most of them being written by Schulz himself. The best one is probably the first film "A Boy Named Charlie Brown". The first 13 specials, going from "Charlie Brown Christmas" to "Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown" range from good to outstanding. Afterwards, the quality becomes very inconsistent between episodes, but there are still plenty of gems worth watching.
>>144601251
Them sharing Chuck simply makes the most sense.
>>144601266Marcie has tiger parents.
>>144601234>>144601251>>144601266is marcie asian
>>144601759Eh there's never been any indication of that in the strips. Most modern media and audiences have co-opted her to being Asian.
>>144580797What's your favorite special? Mine is easily She's a Good Skate.
TIL Charlie Brown made an appearance on Big Nate as a tribute to the conclusion of Peanuts>>144602004Easily Lucy's School, Marcie's a close second but again, consensus was that it was ass
>>144601989It has? I was joking. I believe Schulz said her appearance was modled after Billie Jean King, a white woman.
>>144602091>her appearance was modled after Billie Jean KingWoof, poor Marcie.
>>144602091Well it's either that or she's gay or Autistic. The usual shit.
>>144592132>a diary is a very personal thingDo people even do diaries anymore?
>>144603157They just plaster all their personal info on facebook and/or instagram.
>>144586688have you read fred basset or family circus? peanuts is at l minimum a 6/10 compared to them. don't even get me started on fucking luanne
I miss the era where every little girl was a violent piece of shit but always wore cute dresses and bows
>>144598023The crew said Charlie WASN'T going to twerk in the film.They fucking lied.
>>144580797You are a fool, PP and Marcie are into the blockhead.
>>144601262The strips are timeless, but were there any moments when you knew something felt dated?
>>144597524Patty would look cute with a ponytail
>>144603531Schulz never shied away from making references to pop culture and current events. However, I can only recall one time where not getting a pop culture reference actually got in the way of a joke (in that comic, Charlie Brown met a girl who claimed to be the granddaughter of a fictional baseball player from a movie, and the joke doesn't work if you didn't already know that said baseball player is fictional). The references to current events are usually general enough (pic related) that they can still be understood today. I actually think the historical references are a feature of the comic rather than a drawback, since it lets you sort of experience 1950 - 2000 culturally.
>>14460353190% of the name drops go over my head and aren't really that funny
>>144603157I do, though I do not write entries daily.
>>144603157I've got a journal, but I don't write in it daily. In fact, I only seem to ever actually write in it when I'm in a bad mood, and I really hope nobody ever finds it because it'll make me look completely unhinged.

>>144603531Linus is a big fan of some Kindergarten TV show from the 50's for preschoolers. He makes mention of it several times. From context clues you can tell that it's a TV show for kids, but it being both real and largely forgotten puts the Peanuts in the past.
>>144604012>Lucy is the H-BombFuck, that's funny. It also interesting to see how prevalent Violet and Patty were in the comic for a while and how they seemed to have actually personalities too.
>>144605848Most of Violet and Patry's traits were given to Lucy over time. They became the meqn girl squad for a few years and then we got Sally, Peppermint Patty, Marcie, Freida etc who were much more distinct than Patty and Violet and they phased as Lucy became the dominant female character for the strip.
>>144605294Ding Dong School with Miss Frances
>>144601262thoughts on Snoopy vs the Red Baron, both the song and the running gag?and can you tell me a story?
>>144603723are you sure about that
>>144606389the song is kind of boring, but it's interesting in that it's an early version of fandom music, like the 1960s equivalent of the FNAF song by the Living Tombstone. Although Snoopy is still an interesting character before his WW1 Flying Ace persona gets introduced, it adds a whole fantastical dimension to the comic while also adding more of that Peanuts' edge that makes the comic so good. Some of my favorite strips are when they clash Snoopy's imagination with real life.

>>144593825>>144607222Schlitz was a treasure.
>>144606256I'm sorry, this immediately was the first thing that came to mind
>>144607222Nice trips.I like how this captures the beats and camera movement of a thriller movie. I'd watch this.
>>144600087I wonder, how popular would a romcom anime loosely based on the Peanuts be? Not a 1-to-1 copy like those character designs that have been floating around the web for the last two decades, but something you can see is clearly inspired by the strips if you know where to look.
big fan of peanuts as a kid, i started reading it in chronological ordercan't say that i'm that big of a fan of its earliest period (although it has its moments), but i'll push through
>>144602561She's in love with Chuck. I think this Anon >>144601543has it right.She's most probably Asian.
>>144608689She was called the French Lass in one of the movies. But, I dunno. Overbearing parents were not specifically Asian back then, and even now are moreso a new immigrant parents thing.

>>144609273can't stop won't stop
>>144605925From the earlier strips, it's seems to me that Patty and Violet were sort of the Betty and Veronica of Peanuts (the Girl-next-Door and upper class daddy's girl types). But as time went on and the comic changed to have a more cynical tone, Schultz has to adjust them to the mean girls characters in order to keep up with the changes, which is why Violet seems to fit the role a bit better on her own; the arrogant rich girl could still work well, while Patty became more of a snarky girl-next door for her solo appearances.But then Lucy popped off and fit the bullying spot perfectly, while Marice and Peppermint Patty fit the sarcastic girl and girl next door much better for the 80s onwards (there's a reason Betty was written as a tomboy during this time), and Schultz was basically forced to faze them out since you can't expand or focus on secondary characters too much in a gag-a-day comic unless you want readership to drop.It's still a bit sad I feel. I still think Patty and Violet could work on their own done right with being relegated to just "the mean girls", but sadly the Betty and Veronica of Peanuts just weren't able to get the focus needed and git left by the wayside.

>>144608549It's does have a lot of characters that have similar traits you see in anime in it. You'd be able to make it, even if it'll be a bit more cynical than the usual on.
To anyone who's seen it, how's The Snoopy Show?I remember liking the visual style of that French series before it, but not really liking the way they did the puppet animation and voice acting

I have a pretty bad memory of the years after COVID and if I'd had a diary at the time I would have been able to look back now and go "oh of COURSE, that was the month I spent binging a bad detective novel series".
>>144611459This one makes more sense with the original filename, something like "Little Red-Haired Rendezvous"

To be clear, queer coding is a real thinghttps://www.dictionary.com/browse/queer-codingdone to get around censorship. If you're gay, you can see the signs real easy and they're pretty obvious, even though straight people generally won't know what the fuck you're talking about.Most queer coding is intentional, and does in fact mean the character is queer.Now Peppermint Patty is 100% queer coded, but in this case it's accidental. Charles Schultz based Patty on his cousin Patricia Swanson, who was lesbian, and gave her a bunch of the same quirks and characteristics, which queer people identified as very obviously gay, Charles himself probably had no idea that's what he was doing, and didn't intend Patty to be gay. In fact he downplayed her tomboyishness later when lesbian groups started identifying with her.But yeah, people aren't making up headcanon. Queer coding is real, it's usually intentional, and if it's not intentional, it's probably because some old guy didn't even realize what they were doing.
>>144616179Doesn't change the fact that Peppermint Patty and Marcie are canonically straight. Anyone who says otherwise is engaging in wishful thinking.And being an annoying twat.
>>144614677My favorite special is Charlie Brown's All Stars (1966). It has lot's of great jokes and a good emotional beat at the end. My least favorite special is Happiness Is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown (2011). People online seem to like this one, but I think the flash animation is really ugly and off-putting, even compared to the cheapest direct-to-video Peanuts specials. It also has really awkward pacing and voice acting. I haven't seen any of the Apple TV specials, so I don't know how those stack up.My favorite character is probably Lucy, especially when she's at her most aggressive in the 60s and 70s (she becomes more dumb and mellow towards the end of the comic). Not only is she really funny, but she also has some interesting parallels between herself and Charlie Brown (they both suck at baseball, they both have unrequited love for someone else). I like how the comic hints at Lucy being just as big of a loser as Charlie Brown, except instead of succumbing to self-loathing like Charlie Brown does, she instead takes it out on the people around her.Pic related is one of my favorite arcs. Sally has been hinted at being brutish before, but this arc takes it to an absurd level.
>>144616298>Peppermint Patty and Marcie are canonically straightWhy, cause they expressed interest in a boy?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisexual_erasure
>>144592902Well said. Shipping them is one thing, saying they're canonically gay is another.
>>144616430Saying canon is canon is no more bisexual erasure than me saying that your imaginary friend isn't real is murder or identity theft or some shit.If you want a character to be gay or bisexual, make your own.
>>144616179Tomboy erasure is a real thing and matters far more than any of your faggot terminology>Peppermint Patty is 100% queer codedShe's 6 years old you nonce
>>144616632>>144616756Is there actual canon that says they're straight and not bi?
>>144616940>Tomboy erasure is a real thingwhat's wrong with your brain?
>>144611404Poor chuck. He looks like he had a lot of fun dancing with peppermint patty but snaps back to reality tripping over the War and Peace book. Fuck Ms. Othmar.
>>144617754NTA, but what western tomboy wasn't claimed to be a secret lesbian in the last... pffft, 20 years?Happened to Toph.
>>144617754tomboys are indoctrinated at a young age to either start conforming to femininity or troon out/turn into a dykethe real redpill is that tomboys are more feminine than the average woman
>>144617851>>144617825Yes gender expression isn't necessarily tied to sexual preference, which is something more generally understood today than in the past, but a tomboy being bi or gay or straight doesn't erase or invalidate their status as a tomboy. Or are you trying to say there's a "straight tomboy" erasure? Because no, that's stupid
>>144617740>Is there actual canon that says they're straight and not bi?Gee, other than the fact that they were only ever written showing interest in guys? How about the fact that we know the author, and Schultz was not about to write about gay and bisexual children, even if he bore them zero ill will?I know that, in your damaged mind, that means the door is wide open to claim that there were ball-gags and key parties going on, offscreen, but the fact of the matter is that he didn't say they weren't bisexual because he didn't need to.Also, the whole "prove a negative" thing is a shit-heel move.We're talking about a traditional (and I mean old timey traditional), Christian, man, who created the bulk of these characters in the '50s, AND HE WAS WRITING ABOUT CHILDREN, YOU WEIRDO!The fact is, Peanuts was completed when the creator died. What was on the page at that time is what there was to see and know. If he didn't tell you a character was bisexual, they weren't. If he didn't say they weren't, they still weren't. Any speculation you do is groundless and has no basis in the Peanuts setting; it's wishful thinking to fulfill a fetish or to supplement a need for belonging or acceptance that either your peers/family didn't give you, or can never be satisfied because you are a yawning chasm of neediness and self worth issues.If it's the latter, have the courage to be yourself, by yourself, without converting real and/or fictional children. If it's the former, and that's what gets you hard, then you need to seek help and stay away from real children.You want to pretend they're bi in fan fiction? I can't and won't stop you. You want to speculate about their sexuality in canon? There's no need to, and doing so is pointless: They're straight, because they were always depicted as such, and we know the author. If that takes the sparkle out of your life, reexamine your life.Schultz didn't tell us Patty wasn't a Finnish jet pilot, either. He didn't have to.
>>144618237>Gee, other than the fact that they were only ever written showing interest in guys?So that's a no, there's no canon evidence that they're straight rather than bi, so stop acting like it.>Schultz was not about to write about gay and bisexual childrenOh but straight children is fine to write about.Your caveman thinking will go extinct with you and no one will mourn it
>>144617960A "tomboy" who is bi or gay is not a tomboy, in much the same way that an ocean without water is not an ocean. The term you're thinking of is "masc" or "butch"
>>144615757Why does this feel like it would have worked in the original strip?I mean, not the art. How is it that the storytelling voice feels the same? When you know there's no WAY Sparky would have written something like this?
>>144618442>A "tomboy" who is bi or gay is not a tomboyAgree to disagree I guess, but their gender expression being masculine is never one that's erased or denied, because it's on display for everyone to see. Sexuality gets erased because it's generally not talked about, so just like the guy who's having a meltdown in this thread, if someone sees a girl show interest in a man, it's assumed she must be straight and bi isn't even an option. Which is obviously not true, bi people exist and they don't have to make it obvious that they're bi
>>144618410>so stop acting like it.Nah. Fuck off.>>Your caveman thinking will go extinct with you and no one will mourn itlol, okay tough guy. Straight people will never die off, without taking the rest of the species with them; that's kind of how reproduction works.If you're talking about logical people... Well, we're becoming a rarer breed, no doubt, but I don't see the human race outlasting logic for very long, either.I have no problem with gays or bisexuals who live their lives and don't insist on meddling with others. I have close relatives who are bisexual and have zero problems with them. What I hate are these ludicrous weirdos who insist, against all logic, that this person or that character is bi/gay, because of some pathological need for it.Know that people don't hate you for your sexuality, they dislike you for your odious personality.
>>144618551>but their gender expression being masculine is never oneThat's not a tomboy.Do you know what a tomboy is?
>>144618583Yeah it's what people called women who presented more masculine than the standard for girls. Today we understand that's just where you present on the gender spectrum
Someday, Marcie and PP will lock themselves in a room with Charlie Brown and he won't be let out for 72 hours.
next peanuts thread lets exclude all PP/Marcie talk please? its the most tired, reposted topic in these threads, bringing nothing new to say.
>>144618573>I have no problem with gays or bisexualsYou just said that writing gay or bi children is bad but writing straight children is fine. I actually don't mind outspoken bigots who own it, but your type? At least be honest with yourself
>>144618609So you don't know what a tomboy is, got it.
>>144618642I think I do, what did I get wrong? Keep in mind behavior is a part of presentation
You can tell that a lot of people never read the strips and only saw the TV specials and shit where Peppermint Patty and Marcie's infatuation with Charlie Brown is never relevant, hence modern pop culture being 100% convinced that they were gay.
>>144618652Or Patty and Marcie's "infatuation" with Chuck was specifically and hastily added onto their characters because he didn't like the fact that he accidentally made a gay, and has no relevance beyond that.Can you stop and think for a moment about the implications of Patty (based on Schultz' cousin) being in love with Chuck (based on Schultz himself)? That was not an intended part of her character, that was a panic move.
>>144618551>is never one that's erased or deniedTomboys are very often bullied and pushed into trooning out. Nowadays any media with a tomboy has legions of people calling them gay or a tranny. That's erasure.>>144618609It's inaccurate to call tomboys more masculine. They are far more feminine than the avg women, and your framework of gender is the same sexist one the transgender movement uses.Just to clarify, don't hate trannies, do hate the ideology that creates and praises them
>>144618649You got the basic essence wrong.Which means you and other anon were arguing about different things.He was arguing about what's happening to oranges orchids, and you were talking about the 1995 Ford Fiesta's windshield wipers for some reason.When people don't agree on the definition of words, then pointless arguments occur.
>>144618682>Just to clarify, don't hate tranniesIf you have to say it...
>>144580797>>144580941Peanuts is dogshit, unfunny, and boring. I fucking hated it whenever they played the movies in class. I don't understand how anyone can like Peanuts except for boomers.
>>144618694>oranges orchidsorange orchardsI'm very tired, sorry for the typo.
>>144618682>Tomboys are very often bullied and pushed into trooning outAnd that's awful but not the same concept as bi erasure. You don't look at a tomboy and say "no they're actually not a tomboy", whereas bi characters in media get that all the time. Again, the anon having a meltdown in this thread and INSISTING they can't be bi until it's proven they are shows exactly that
>>144618680>Or Patty and Marcie's "infatuation" with Chuck was specifically and hastily added onto their characters because he didn't like the fact that he accidentally made a gay, and has no relevance beyond that.>>Can you stop and think for a moment about the implications of Patty (based on Schultz' cousin) being in love with Chuck (based on Schultz himself)? That was not an intended part of her character, that was a panic move.The fan fiction in this thread...
>>144618731All of this is established fact:Charlie Brown was inspired by Charles SchultzPepperment Patty was based on his lesbian cousinPatty's interest in chuck was never in the comics until several years after it's creationoh and one more fact:There is nothing in canon saying they're straight
>>144618696They're just the newest victim of the modern decay. I have a dislike of them, and a true hatred for the rot>>144618718Look, if you understand a tomboy as merely a masculine (again, this isn't accurate) woman, then yeah you're right. In my understanding of the thing, tomboyishness implies hetero, and a queer tomboy is a contradiction>until it's proven otherwiseTo be honest, I think you're blinded to the fact bisexuals are a small minority. It's straight weird and groundless to assume outside of headcanon that characters are bi
>>144618718>And that's awful but not the same concept as bi erasure.It's worse, because it happens to real people.>bi characters in media get that all the timeWhere? Who?>>144618779>Patty's interest in chuck was never in the comics until several years after it's creationNo shit? That's not surprising, given that SHE wasn't in the comics until several years after its creation.>>144618779>oh and one more fact:>There is nothing in canon saying they're straightDisingenuous at worst, dense at best.
>>144618811>Where? Who?for /co/ related, Jackie Lynn Thomas and bubbeline come to mind, people kept talking about how they were "turned gay" because they showed interest in women after previously showing interest in men. And don't get me started on overwatch characters that are supposedly "turned gay">SHE wasn't in the comics until several years after its creation.And her interest in Chuck wasn't shown for several years after THAT>Disingenuous at worst, dense at bestThis is a yes/no question:Does anything in canon show or say they are straight? The answer is no. Interest in men does not mean they are straight, it just means they're not lesbian
>>144618994Are you seriously stupid enough to think that bubbeline wasn't artificial
>>144612736>>144613671>>144586903since I am drawing porn of this, I am thinking about calling the project something other than Peanuts, provisionally Beans, but I am open to suggestions.
>>144619044I just remember than years before Bubbline was canon, some guy said "they're not gay" and one of the writers/creators responded "gee you say that like you know what you're talking about".I can't find the screencap but if you were here you know what I'm talking about
>>144618680>Patty and Marcie's "infatuation" with Chuck was specifically and hastily added onto their characters because he didn't like the fact that he accidentally made a gayHaving a fan theory is fine, but just making stuff up like this makes it sound like you're arguing in bad faith, and that you don't actually care about what's in the comic. Before Marcy even gets introduced, Peppermint Patty is shown flirting with Linus, asking Snoopy out to a dance, and even beginning her unrequited love affair for Charlie Brown.
>>144618631We should focus on Violet and Patty taking Charlie Brown back.
theres not enough yaoi in the peanuts fandom
Would Phoebe and Marcie get along?
>>144615996Does anyone have the Clarissa variant?
>>144618611And he'll be severely drained.
>>144616430Est shit fujo scum, may your brain rot and literal endless cope and see the leave this board and never return

>>144620653Im about to legume.
>>144610245>>144615996Savage.
>>144580941I genuinely think Charles M. Schultz may be one of the greatest writer/artists of all time. Peanuts is an amazing accomplishment
>>144580797>Anyways, PP and Marcie are totally into each otherThe Yurifag genocide cannot come soon enough.
>>144618631Sure.Let's instead talk about how hot Lucy is.
>>144580941>deserves He is one regardless how anyone feels.
>>144581853Rare instance of a tsundere attitude that isn't annoying as shit.
>>144602004Not very original but i spent too many years watching the Christmas special with my mom for it not to be my favorite. I should probably watch some of the old non holiday ones just to see them.

New idea for a Peanuts special:“Your Butt’s Too Big, Lucy Van Pelt”Lucy discovers, to her embarrassment, that her butt has been getting bigger, and she must find a way to lose weight from it for the upcoming baseball game.
>>144580797Dicknuts
>>144623538I predict at some point, Franklin will say "DAYUM".
>>144619133Wasn't the strip originally called "Li'l Folks"? How about "L'il F**ks"?
>>144580797Wait, so what does "sexualizing kids" supposed to mean? Is this it?
>>144623538The opening scenes will go like this:After causing the baseball team to lose another game Lucy (after failing to find a way to blame Charlie for it) draws a hopscotch while thinking about why she can never do well. Then a bully (the same one from WHY, CHARLIE BROWN, WHY) passes by, sees her bent over and with her butt sticking out, and proceeds to heckle her for how big her butt is. Lucy becomes very embarrassed, and after returning home she looks at her butt in a mirror, and indeed it is very overweight. She immediately declares that this is why she’s so bad at baseball, and she now must find a way to lose her butt’s excess fat before the next game.
>>144601543>>144601759You know having strict parents isn’t exclusive to Asians, right?
>>144619261>and that you don't actually care about what's in the comic.Whaaat? No shit?
>you see this lonely bullied boy? Well the only girl who likes him actually is gay and likes her friend instead Why are faggots so cruel?
>>144625260Because they're gay.
>>144620372Phoebe doesn't have the psycho streak, although they might have different prespectives on a pressure to over-achieve to discuss.
>>144625260They hate Charlie Brown
>>144624116That very nearly happened in canon.
>>144627987This short was what made me horny for her.
>>144580810We know
>>144620653This is a good one.
>>144619133Please no, this is one of those things that shouldn't be corrupted
>>144596069mama mia
>>144616179"Coding" is literally just another term for "headcanon" to make it sound more factual
>>144630204well, that's why I wanted to call it something else, unless you mean the version I've drawn specifically.
>>144596853Nice work anon
>>144630792Ah yes, from the forgotten and rarely-seen crossover with Funky Winkerbean.
>>144607300I miss his schit.Too bad we don't summon him by saying his name in these threads, but I guess he doesn't visit /co/ regular.
>>144610869That little book is interesting.>lucy going on about snow coming up from the ground is from a strip that never got reprintedDid this come up multiple times? It feels weird that You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown would have a whole song based on a strip that ran once in the 50s.
Schulz drew a fully naked version of the clothes getting knocked off gag. Pretty mild. It feels out of place in this book featuring big tits and hairy vaginas.
>>144610926>>144622454I wonder what the real time feedback was like. Schultz could have just stopped having her yell for any number of stock punchlines and just ignored her gimmick in the first place. But I've seen the axe picture... makes me really think he got hounded with hatemail about her and would rather just invent a new character than try to reform her.
>>144580797I remember charlie brown....
>>144628103they remembered tapioca pudding exists
>>144580797Marcie maybe, as frustration-fueled revenge-rape.
>>144580797>PP and Marcie are totally into each otherSpeedreader yurifaggot. Use your free time better next time.
>>144581759>annonyedShe's surprised, not annoyed.
>>144618710Filtered tranny
>>144580941Peanuts may be the biggest pleb filter of all comic media.
Time to blow some minds: Schulz once clarified that, contrary to the common misconception, Charlie Brown is not bald. Instead, his hair is very light blond, to the point it's hard to see clearly. Pic related is a clearer depiction of what he's supposed to look like.
>>144634012I literally already knew.
>>144581054The Chuck/Pattie/Marcie is anime harem shenanigans before anime harem shenanigans were a thing. Fucking Peanuts of all things might be the grandfather of harem anime tropes and I don't know how to feel about that.
>>144625260Shouldn't they be screaming media literary since the only way to interpret a work of art is with the author's explicit intentions?
>>144632464
Peanuts always reminds me of my grandparents, does anyone else relate?
>>144635118No.
>>144634963This letter always cracks me up. What a guy.
>>144631064>>144630204
>>144636342Based Peppermint Patty.
>>144580797It's nice to see that even Chuck had the appeal of some girls. He should go with Marcie, she's totally adorable, geeky, and has a bit of mischievous side.
>>144610869That last one at the bottom is perfect lmao.
>>144597370Lucy and Linus’s baby brother who got a lot of focus in the ‘90s was literally named “Rerun”.
>>144599208>I still can't tell if Marcie was meant to be white or Asian.“Marcie” is the least Asian name in the universe.
>>144599726One of the weirdest things about Peanuts was characters getting introduced as babies and then aging up to Charlie Brown’s age (or just a little younger) while Charlie stayed mostly the same.
>>144599208I used to believe she was originally a parody of Honey Huan, Duke's Chinese interpreter in Doonesbury. Which she can't be, since it turns out she first appeared five years before Honey.
>>144580797Pee nuts
>>144609009Unfortunately all these crap drawings have been ruining threads about peanuts for quite a long time now, that's what I only dip in occasionally. There's also a bunch of posturing about people who dislike it are part of some hater conspiracy, which you've run into. It's a very routine act. If you want actual substantial discussion of the strip you have to go elsewhere these days /co/ is not very good for it.
>>144619133Butter or Jam.
>>144619133This nigga out there drawing Beans!
>>144639326I just wish the art would be on-model to Sparky's drawings.
>>144620653Too esoteric.
>>144619133>I am thinking about calling the project something other than Peanuts, provisionally BeansThis Peanuts with the serial numbers filed off?
>>144616143This is why you should have more than one kid. Just in case one of them turns out like shit.

>>144618652Their infatuation with him IS in the TV specials. And the movie.
>>144637950Shows he had some self awareness.
>>144640054>>144640072esotoric sounds perfect, actually.
>>144640180Show one instance from the new specials where they show infatuation with him.
