Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

You'd have far more interesting results reading the passages to a group of kindergartners armed with crayons and big sheets of paper. Or any group of people with same. This is uninteresting. We've all seen slop from the slop machines.

UFS was probably not happy with that tagline lol

They were always pretty clear they didn’t want any confusion about his Young Pillars cartoons being connected to Peanuts. It’s cool to see a Schulz teen comic though. I love these.

At least I’m home …….

That’s good stuff

Where does one acquire a diamond-tipped pen??

Personally, he's 5% aware that he's in a comic strip and 95% that he's just that theatrical/ dramatic. There seems to be strips where he speaks to the reader directly, but is a little surprised to find someone actually there.

Absolutely not.

Lucy, Charlie Brown, and Linus lie on a grassy hill looking at the sky. Lucy says, "Uh huh ... that's very good ... What do *you* see in the clouds, Charlie Brown?" Originally published 8/14/1960, by Charles M. Schulz

Reminds me of something I've seen before ..

At the point in the writing where I should get a barrel of peanut M&Ms and give myself one for each sentence I complete. Maybe I'd make headway.

Heartbreaking

If that Peanuts comic is in that issue, Nancy & Sluggo #184 (sorry, I don't have time this AM to double-check), I can confirm it's *not* Schulz, and not even one of his studio assistants who did these, but rather Dell house artists.

Nancy by Ernie Bushmiller. First panel, Nancy talking to a logger sawing a tree and pointing to a carved piece of trunk. Nancy: Can I have that piece? My boy friend carved it. Logger: Sure. Second panel, Nancy is watching the log burn in the fire place. Nancy: I'm mad at him.

Every once in awhile I think about this Nancy comic and it makes me laugh every single time. Absolute perfection.

I mean ... 10/25/1995

New version of the old war profiteering game.

In a newspaper comic strip clipping of Eek & Meek by Howie Schneider, originally published 3/10/1970 -- A kid mouse, I think his name is Luvable, says to Meek, an adult mouse, "Hey, y'know what?" Meek replies, "What?" as they walk along. Luvable says in the final panel, "Five is a four-letter word!" Meek looks out at the reader in surprise.
