Graphic novels: history & criticism

Peanuts is beloved by countless readers worldwide for its iconic characters ? such as Snoopy, Charlie Brown, and Lucy van Pelt ? gentle humor, and emotional resonance. The artist behind Peanuts shares the same name recognition, but among critics and historians, he is far more than a celebrity ? he wrote and drew every strip in the newspaper comic's 50 years himself, and it reflects the moral, aesthetic, and intellectual foundations of Schulz's worldview and art. Fantagraphics is proud to present four extensive conversations with Schulz, conducted by film critic Leonard Maltin, novelist Laurie Colwin, Fantagraphics publisher Gary Groth, and comics historian Rick Marschall.

Reviews for What Cartooning Really Is: The Major Interviews with Charles Schulz

Made for serious Peanuts fans but insightful for anyone interested in the creative process.-- ""Kirkus""
