Even the most devoted Peanuts fan will be surprised by revisiting
Schulz's last decade of work. Schulz's cartooning has never been more
expressive, and his sense of humor never more unencumbered 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' great-granddaughter? Then,
Linus lobbies the White House to nominate Snoopy for a Supreme Court
seat (it would go 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.
This is the 22nd volume (of 25) of the bestselling series collecting
every single one of the 18,000-plus strips created by Schulz from
1950-2000.
