Peanuts is 75 years old today! How are you celebrating?
>>150660187The first Peanuts strip.
>>150660187I'm gonna go jerk off to lucy and peppermint patty lewds to celebrateNo need to shame me, I already know what I am
>>150660206She should pin Charlie down and rape him
>>150660206It's a simple, amusing sequence. I have a hard time trying to find places here for collected Peanuts comics. I have Andrews McMeel (two of em) and three from Titan Comics. I can't say I've made up my mind about colors vs black/white. Takes some getting used to, I suppose.
No Great Pumpkin ever called me a N*****I will say that.

>>150660837Is it colour comics that needs getting used to for you, or black and white? I thought about getting the Titan facsimiles just because they look nice, though I have 16 volumes The Complete Peanuts collections that have the strips.
>>150662913>real version not /co/ versionHuh?
>>150662635I absolutely see the appeal of PP but for me, it's Lucy. She knows we live in a society.
>>150665118There's no SOUND, Anon!There's no sound!!WHAT A BLOCKHEAD!!HE POSTED THE WRONG CLIP!!

I actually did the ranking a couple years ago on here, but some are higher/lower, tiers are different and I feel this version's better written.
>>150660187Do you know they have a console video game coming out this month?Snoopy & The Great Mystery Club - Official Announcement Trailerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7yV3prgVrA
Why were they called peanuts anyways
>>150667465Its a dick joke. Charlie's nuts are the size of a pea.
>>150660187by celebrating its creator and his works
>>150667465Editor thought it was a fun snappy name and better than 'Charlie Brown And Friends'Schulz said fine and regretted it for the rest of his life, he hated the name 'Peanuts'
>>150667465I thought Peanuts were a cutesy nickname for kids?
>>150667465Because 'Lil' Folks' was too close to another comic and the editor changed the name at the last minute when he noticed it, and Schultz never bothered to change it back.
>>150660206dunkin on charlie brown rigjt from the rip
>>150667465I know it's not the real reason, but for decades I thought it was because the kids' heads were all shaped like peanuts (except for the round-headed kids like Charlie Brown and Peppermint Patty). I swear I must have read it somewhere, because I'm not bright enough to make that connection myself.

this thread is lame
>>150670413It'll get better once you leave.
>>150667954I remember Andy Beall, artist for Peanuts licensing, describing Snoopy's head as peanut shaped https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=20WK9fw3kdI
>>150670368Later, Linus was found dead
>>150660187By reading this thread. I wouldn't have known otherwise.
>>150667497It's also the reason why every animated adaption was titled with "Charlie Brown" or "Snoopy" because Schulz wrote everything.
>>150670439nah
Why does Charlie have a scribble on his bald head
>>150670660he smeared feces on his head
Have the people who own the franchise done anything to celebrate it?
>>150670681You kidding? Yeah? They've been doing things all year. I went to Santa Rosa back to attend in person celebrations for 75th with hundreds of people at got a lot of Peanuts 75 branded swag. As for the day itself well a lot of the offical social medias have covered it I guess but lots of fans organised different things to together yesterday.
>>150670681The Mutts creator edited a book coming about as well. A big collection of firsts in Peanuts history. Could be a reasonable collection.
Why were Peppermint Patty and Marcie so nice to Charlie
'nuts
stay tuned im gonna share some funny sally strips

>>150671094Because they both had crushes on him. Didn't you know?

>>150675481lol? this was a completely wordless strip and that was your impression.
>>150675639He’s looking right at Lucy with his mouth open
>>150675684it's just dogspeak like in the showhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttAf915z67E

>>150667328
>>150671094
>>150673773thats sweet
>>150671547Charlie then fell down and died
Why is Charlie bald, does he have cancer?
Have any of you seen It's a Mad World, Charlie Brown?
>>150677907Why?
Isch Bin ein Braun
>>150678973She's dead, Anon. Let her go.
>>150679045I understand this figure was made as cake topper for an actual wedding. Lol, so cute.
>>150676037No, Lucy's always been a brunette.
>>150675481He's just making an "I've got an idea!" expression.
>the strip that redpilled millions
>>150677907I would've put her legs and feet over the armrest of the chair for a more natural pose.
Who else is sipping their Peanuts 75th anniversary drinks?
Charlie gor diddled, that's why he brown
>>150677880He has closely cropped blond hair
>>150681579You can drink them from these glasses
>>150682229Why is the outside of the drink covered with Lucy posed like that?

>>150682409Is she gonna kill the red-haired girl?
>>150660187When I was a kid, immediately after charles schulz died, i started drawing comics to send to my local paper so I could replace Peanuts.
>>150682450What were those comics like
>>150682430Maybe that's what sent her over the edge
>>150682450Awesome! Still have any of them?
>>150682562Charlie is a pussy so he won't do anything about it aside form going "jee shucks"
>>150682469a bunch of randomly drawn characters just badly repeating jokes i saw on tv.>>150682570i might still have the notebooks in storage somewhere

Schulz was speaking from experience.
>>150683606i always found it weird how he still misses his oneitis years after he got married with jeannie. that must be awkward
>>150682750WTF Charlie is based?
>>150683606
>>150683777Wait, why did Charlie get Linus' blanket?
>>150683802Don't remember. I know Linus eventually grows out of the blanket.
>>150683777When was this strip from? Near the end of its' run?
>>150683777
>>150683943Is she crying tears of joy?
I have naturally curly hair!
>>150684606>Level 3What does she look like at level 5? Or level 10? What's her final form?
Spamming Tiktok with Sora 2 mini-eps of Snoopy. Good money!
>>150683802>>150683858Linus gave it to Charlie as something to remember him by when they were originally moved away
>>150683293>10 centsCandy inflation rates must have been bad if she's charging double what she used to charge
Animation wise, whats worth watching? Ive only seen the Christmas one way back in the day, and the 2015 movie.
>>150686190The one where Snoopy meets his family
>>150682750The fact the comic never elaborated on Violet's blatant daddy issues is criminal.
How does Charlie Brown lose his virginity
>>150684936>what's her final formHer Natural Curly Hair turns into tentacles lol.
He's so lame
Schizo Theory: Charlie Brown doesn't exist. He's an imaginary friend conjured up by the kids as an outlet for their problems.
>>150660187Best comic out there
>>150686636What do Patty and Marcie use him foe
>>150665642awesome
>>150686636Clearly posted in jest, but still an interesting idea. Charlie being a shared delusion between all the kids (maybe an imaginary friend of sorts?) they they all agree exists would make for a good comic or fic.
While I think it's possible to go too far in seeing the Lucy/Schroeder strips as the breakdown of his marriage, it's hard to resist. I think it was Watterson who pointed out that spending all day practicing classical music on a toy piano is like the perfect metaphor for what a cartoonist does.>>150670620It's also why for a couple of decades the Sunday strips were always titled "Peanuts featuring Good Ol' Charlie Brown." GOCB was the title Schulz wanted but it was too late to change it officially.The problem is that when the strip started, he didn't know Charlie Brown would be the star. If he had pitched calling it "Charlie Brown" instead of "Li'l Folks" in 1950 they'd probably have taken it.
>>150688873this is shitty
>>150686636Interesting idea, anything goes wrong, blame it on Charlie Brown. Broken window, Charlie Brown did it! Said something you shouldn't have, "W-Well Charlie Brown said," etc. Soon Charlie Brown become "The Kid" you know which one I'm talking about. And it eventually it just takes on a life of its own.Until one day... a moving van comes in and... well that's another story entirely.
>>150665688The color ones. I honestly like Schultz's work in black and white as is. I'm not against it, just takes some time.>The Complete Peanuts collectionNice! One of these days I hope to get it myself. I do have the art book for the movie.
>>150683696Some people don't get over their first love. They still live past it. Maybe it's for the better that folks don't actually think/feel the same way these days. It does you no good and you know it's pointless to be hung up about 'what could've been' and in some ways, it can make you seem ungrateful if you still find someone to be with later in life. But I guess I appreciate the honesty in that strip, perhaps in a way a cautionary tale. Like that old>used to walk home from the bus stop every day with a cute tomboy in highschool and we got relatively close
>>150691096I generally prefer the black and white strips too. When they are in colour, it's never as consistent as I like across years of strips. I remember during a presentation at Beaglefest, an in-person meetup of Peanuts fans, one of the slides showed all the various palettes used over the years repeated with one strip. Wish I took a photo.I otherwise really like the switch to digital colouring between 1997 to 2000, done by Paige Braddock. Interesting to think Sparky was alive to see the strip be displayed on computer screens.
>>150688873This is good.
>>150691138What happened to his chest?
>>150687889Marcie is such a bitch
>>150683903I've grown accustomed to her face ....
>>150691579
>>150691784Damn, Charlie's cock makes them go crazy
Charlie Brown should kill Lucy
>>150691542If I remember right the strip lasted long enough for Sally to make a Harry Potter reference near the end.
>>150691712I understood that reference
How would've the comic have been after 9/11 if Charles didn't die
>>150691928They're like 8-10 years old. Pretty sure their attachment isn't sexual attraction.For me, the best part is Charlie Brown is both oblivious to their attraction to him, and uninterested because he's fixated on the unattainable little red-haired girl.
>>150693498It never really touched on political issues or world news. I doubt it would have dealt with 9/11 any more than it dealt with Watergate or the Tet Offensive.
>>150692781
>>150687889The more you look at this one, the more it gives.
>>150693539The closest mention to Watergate, if anyone is interested.
>>150693584Good ol Schlitz.
>>150660206How exactly did that hook audiences? Obviously peanuts has great jokes, but why such a simple one here? We don't even know anything about Charlie brown yet.
>>150660187>>150663140>>150663979>>150666109https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A15v4tTab0Y
>>150693729It didn’t really hook audiences, it took several years for it to get popular.The strip was originally an extension of Schulz’s Li’l Folks strips where kids talk like a cross between children and neurotic adults. So this strip starts out like it could be about cute kids who like each other and then subverts it in the punchline.Retroactively it became a great introduction because Charlie Brown soon became the star and slowly developed into a loser who everyone dumps on, which he wasn’t really at first.
>>150693729It's hard for us today to grasp how truly revolutionary Peanuts was at the beginning.That first strip immediately set Peanuts apart from the other gag-a-day and serial comics of its day. The minimalist visual style was extremely novel at the time. The twist punch line was not what was not the kind of thing associated with children in popular culture. And its deadpan delivery was also something you didn't see in the funnies. Syndicates were attracted by the strip's appeal to both children and adults, without any adult characters. It took a few years for Peanuts to really hit its stride with its combination of thoughtful maturity and imaginative fantasy, but it only took those few years for Peanuts to become a cultural juggernaut for the next few decades, becoming a major touchstone of American society, while completely changing the trajectory of comic art.It was also pretty damn funny.
>>150693684Does he still make comics?
>>150693584BWAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!
>AAAAAIIIIIEEEEE LINUS-SAMA, I CAN'T HIT THE FOOTBALL BECAUSE LUCYGOD KEEPS MOVING IT AWAY, WHAT CAN I SAY BUT YABBA DABBA GOOD GRIEF!
Reading this strips, it hit just how much Peanuts walked so South Park could run.The other innovation Peanuts did was to shatter notions of "childhood innocence" by showing exactly how much kids could be utter assholes to each other. The girls in particular are real cunts at times. This is just like how kids are in real life.The only thing South Park did was add vulgarity and toilet humor to make it even more verisimilar to real kids.
>>150665053>both teams lose, "good game, good game">Granny yelling "Go Cubs," Cubs aint ain't playing>>150662913correct post
>>150694583There are no innocents here.
>>150667413I love that "I want a Dog for Christmas" is pretty much a love letter to Rerun, who became big in the strips in the 90's using his strips to make a special, plus it's nice to see Spike. >Charlie Brown Christmas talesIt's short because it was made as filler when ABC got rights to Peanuts specials, they of course added more commercials, to keep the special in tact without chopping things out it had to run a little past 30 minutes so Christmas tales was made to fill the gap for the rest of the hour
>>150695047Schroeder is nice to Chuck, even Linus can be a cunt to him sometimes.
In this comic strip all the girls are complete shitheads while the boys are complete doormats
>>150663162>Human lasagna juiceThis muddies the crude joke Rorschach was making>Human bean juice>Human being juiceThere are quite a few off color remarks Rorschach makes, mostly while speaking to Big Figure, that I appreciate Moore uses to show Walter's stunted in his interactions due to his upbringing and traumatic encounters but still has a sharp, even if somewhat unwell, mind.Most people assume Walter/Moore, is a grim humorless bastard but he's just a unique character you have to be willing to exit your comfort zone to understand.Waitaminute, this isn't a Watchmen thread.
>>150668885i don't know what that means, nor did i know "peanuts spaces" are a thing
>>150682562isn't she already red-haired. or like. brown-auburn. apparently it's actually been just brown for 70 years and i had hallucinated for decades that the whole joke was that chuck only has eyes for a SPECIFIC red-haired girl, or like he's just super finicky about hair color. i feel really stupid now, anons.
>>150683293This is the kind of metaphor that speaks to me but saying so makes me sound like 2deep4u bullshit.
>>150693966He's been dead since 2001.
>>150691053I'm very sure there's at least one actual story or novel about something sort of like this but can't retrieve it from memory at the moment and if there isn't one, there should be.
>>150693562somehow this fucks me up on a personal level of time. i always thought about peanuts as just 'that newspaper comic everyone knows' and never really got how it kinda kickstarted the whole concept in the first place. or how there are "peanuts heads." and how i figured it was so quaint and simple that wouldn't happen but it only appears quant and simple now because we're used to 4-panels that end on a joke for 75 years. it's like discovering that there's an entire subsection of fat fetishists who got their start from reading garfield.
>>150695676i love Lucy's rare soft side
>>150693584If you got rid of the swearing, that's actually pretty passable for a normal comic.
>>150695909That would explain why his webcomic is updating so glacially lately.
