With intros by John Waters and Mo Willems! The Complete Peanuts 1967-1968 is a particularly Snoopy-heavy collection. In addition to seeing the beagle adopt multiple personas, this volume also sees the appearance of what would be Schulz's most controversial major character: Franklin. In Charles Schulz's The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970, Woodstock makes his first appearance, Snoopy is left in the Van Pelt family's care as the Browns vacation... and the Little Red-Haired Girl moves away.

"It's impossible to think of another popular art form that reaches across generations the way the daily comic strip does . . . at the pinnacle of that long tradition, there was Charles Schulz" (Seattle Times)
"Charles Schulz was an American treasure - an artist, philosopher, and keen observer of human life" (BILL CLINTON)
"The world of Peanuts is a microcosm, a little human comedy for the innocent reader and for the sophisticated" (UMBERTO ECO)
"Charles Schulz was, plain and simple, a great artist and philosopher . . . But most importantly, he teaches all ages that if you can learn to laugh at the things that cause you the most pain you will be the strongest of all. Peanuts: a real way of life" (JOHN WATERS)
"Peanuts was, is, and will continue to be the finest comic in the world. Bravo" (RAY BRADBURY) --Bill Clinton
"The understated clarity of Peanuts influenced virtually every comic strip that's appeared in recent decades . . . The Complete Peanuts reveals how one of the masters of the comic strip developed'" (Observer) --Observer
"These timely re-issues illustrate not only the skill and subtle brilliance of his work but also the origins of the form beyond simple merriment" (Sunday Times) --Sunday Times
Charles M. Schulz was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota in 1922 and grew up in Saint Paul. He gained a reputation worldwide as a cartoonist for his work on Peanuts. He died in 2000.

Hardcover. Etat : new. Hardcover. In The Complete Peanuts 1967-1968 As we rush toward the end of Peanuts' second full decade, Snoopy finds himself almost completely engrossed in his persona as theWorld War I Flying Ace to the point where he goes to camp withCharlie Brown and maintains his persona throughout the entire two-weekperiod (much to Peppermint Patty's bafflement). Still, Snoopy looms large, so this volume (a particularlySnoopy-heavy one) sees him arm-wrestling Lucy as the "Masked Marvel"and then taking off for Petaluma for the national arm-wrestlingchampionship; impersonating a vulture and a "Cheshire Beagle"; enjoyinggolf and hockey; attempting a jaunt to France for an ice-skatingchampionship; running for office on the "Paw" ticket; being traded toPeppermint Patty's baseball team, then un-traded and installed as teammanager by a guilt-ridden Charlie Brown; as well as dealing with thereturn of his original owner, Lila. If you're surprised by that lastone, imagine how Charlie Brown feels. Lila makes only a brief appearance (as does Jose Peterson, ashort-lived and short star member of Charlie Brown's baseballteam), but this volume sees the appearance of what would be Schulz'smost controversial major character: Franklin. (Yes, in 1968 theintroduction of a Black character caused a stir.) Peppermint Patty, working toward her ascendancy as one of the major Peanutsplayers in the 1970s and 1980s, also has several major turns, includinga storyline in which she s the tent monitor for three little girls (whocall her "Sir" a joke Schulz would pick up later with PeppermintPatty's friend Marcie). Stories involving other characters include a sequence in whichLinus's flippant comment to his Gramma that he'll kick his blankethabit when she kicks her smoking habit backfires; Lucy bullies Linus, pesters Schroeder, and organizes a "crab-in"; plus Charlie Brown copeswith Valentine's Day depression, the Little Red-Haired Girl, theincreasingly malevolent kite-eating tree, and baseball losses. In otherwords: Vintage Peanuts All this, plus an introduction by beloved transgressive filmmaker John Waters and award-winning design by Seth.In The Complete Peanuts 1969-1970 He turns up first as Snoopy s secretary, then gradually becomes a good friend whom Snoopy helps to fly South. but it s not until June 22, 1970 that the little bird gains a name, in a perfect salute to the decade that ends with this volume: Woodstock In other timely stories, Peppermint Patty runs afoul of her school s dress code (those sandals ), Lucy declares herself a New Feminist, and Snoopy s return to the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm on a speaking engagement climaxes in a riot and a new love found amidst the teargas ( She had the softest paws. ).Speaking of Snoopy, this volume falls under the sign of the Great Beagle, as three separate storylines focus on the mysterious sovereign of Beagledom. First Snoopy is summoned by a wrathful G.B. when Frieda submits a complaint about his (Snoopy s) desultory rabbit-chasing efforts; then, back in the Great one s good graces, Snoopy is sent on a secret mission; and finally he himself ascends (briefly ) to the mantle of Great Beagledom.In other news, an exasperated Lucy throws Schroeder s piano into the maw of the kite-eating tree, with gruesome results. Miss Othmar goes on strike and Linus gets involved. Charlie Brown s baseball team has an actual (brief) winning streak. Snoopy s quest to compete in the Oakland ice skating competition is thwarted by his inability to find a partner. Charlie Brown goes to a banquet to meet his hapless baseball hero Joe Shlabotnik. Snoopy is left in the Van Pelt family s care as Charlie and Sally Brown head out of town for a vacation. and (alas) the Little Red-Haired Girl moves away.This volume also features a new introduction by renowned illustrator Mo Willems and, as always, gorgeous design by award-winning cartoonist Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
