THE COMPLETE PEANUTS Volume 22 1993-1994

Peanuts enters its final decade, and The Complete Peanuts enters its homestretch, with material that is perhaps the most overlooked of Schulz's career and reconsidered by scholars with this volume. Schulz's cartooning has never looked more confident, and his sense of humor never more unrestrained. This is the 22nd volume (of 25) of the perennial, bestselling series. Even the most devoted Peanuts fan will be surprised by revisiting Schulz's last decade of work. Schulz's cartooning was never more expressive, and his sense of humor never less encumbered by formula or tradition. In one sequence, the gang waits... and waits... for a school bus that never comes. Another shockingly showcases Charlie Brown hitting a game-winning home run -- off Roy Hobbs's great-granddaughter? Then, Linus lobbies the White House to nominate Snoopy for a Supreme Court seat (it went to Ruth Bader Ginsburg). Woodstock discovers his long-lost grandfather's diary, detailing a hard life in captivity (birdcage). Snoopy lands in the hospital with pneumonia, and all three of his brothers -- Andy, Spike, and Olaf -- come pay their respects. Out Of Print. Condition: Fine Plus. Back top spine corner bump.
