The Complete Peanuts 1997-1998 captures the final chapters of Charles M. Schulz's beloved comic strip. These strips explore Charlie Brown’s entanglement in a counterfeit autograph scheme, Rerun’s contentious accusations, Snoopy’s brothers’ adventurous quest for Mickey Mouse, and Snoopy earning his driving licence. Linus’s venture into founding a church devoted to the Great Pumpkin, only to be branded a false prophet, adds to the comic's nuanced humour and charm. This volume, rich with surprises, invites readers to reflect on the enduring legacy of Peanuts.
