Complete Peanuts HC (2004-2016 Fantagraphics) comic books 2007

Volume 7 - 1st printing. "1963-1964!" Story and art by Charles Schulz. In this volume of the bestselling Complete Peanuts series, Charles Schulz introduces one (in fact, three) of the quirkiest characters to the Peanuts universe, the numerically-monikered 95472 siblings. They didn't stay around very long but offered some choice bits of satirical nonsense while they did. As it happens, this volume is particularly rich in never-before-reprinted strips: Over 150 (more than one fifth of the book!) have never seen the light of day since their original appearance over 40 years ago, so this will be a trove of undiscovered treasures even for avid Peanuts collectors. Introduction by Bill Melendez, animator of all the Peanuts TV specials starting all the way back with A Charlie Brown Christmas! Hardcover, 9-in. x 7-in., 346 pages, B&W. Cover price $28.95.

Volume 8 - 1st printing. "1965-1966!" Story and art by Charles Schulz. It's the mid-1960s, one of Schulz's peak periods of creativity. Snoopy has become the strip's dominant personality, and this volume marks two milestones for the character: the first of many 'dogfights' with the nefarious Red Baron, and the launch of his writing career ('It was a dark and stormy night...'). Two new characters - the first two from outside the strip's regular little neighborhood - make their bows. Roy (who befriends Charlie Brown and then Linus at summer camp) won't have a lasting impact, but upon his return from camp he regales a friend of his with tales of the strange kids he met, and she has to go check them out for herself. Her name... Peppermint Patty! Hardcover, 9-in. x 7-in., 340 pages, B&W. Cover price $28.95.
