We've come around to that strange place in Peanuts history where Charles Schulz experimented with putting adult characters in the strip as background elements, with continuity elements, with a relatively serious storyline, with titling, and with making Lucy a golf whiz.
Thing is, we already covered these strips last year.
I'm taking the day off from the blog, feel free to go back and reread my comments on the sequence, which is among the stranger moments in Peanuts' run, right up there with the time Alfred E. Neuman appeared in the strip.
Read this sequence at gocomics.com:
May 9 - May 16 - May 23 - May 30
I saw a couple of pieces of original art from this sequence on sale (or display) at San Diego many years ago.
ReplyDeleteReading the strips still strikes me as a sort of "PEANUTS ELSEWORLDS" experience.
