The final volume in this collectible and highly praised series, with introduction by Barack Obama.
Volume 25 of The Complete Peanuts presents the very final year of the defining comic strip of the 20th century, which ran for nearly 18,000 strips and for 50 years after its debut in 1950. This masterpiece includes all of 1999 through to the final strip on 13 February 2000.
In this volume, Rerun takes centre stage and cements himself as the last great Peanuts character, when he embarks on a career as an underground comic book artist! This volume also features a huge surprise: the complete Li'l Folks, the weekly one-panel comic that Charles Schulz produced for his hometown paper.
Li'l Folks was a clear precursor to Peanuts, and its inclusion here will bring The Complete Peanuts full circle.
Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
Praised by Barack Obama as an enduring American treasure, this volume acts as a daily security blanket across generations. The Seattle Times honours Schulz's work as a pinnacle in the art of daily comic strips. Umberto Eco describes the world of Peanuts as a microcosm of human comedy for all readers, while John Waters sees Schulz as a philosopher teaching strength through laughter and pain.
