About the Peanuts Comic Strip:
Peanuts was a comic strip written and drawn by Charles M. Schulz. It was about a boy named Charlie Brown, his dog named Snoopy who is his best friend, and the lives of their best friends named Linus, Schroder, Sally (Charlie Brown's little sister), Lucy, Patty, Peppermint Patty, Marcie and Woodstock. It started in 1950 and ended in 2000 when Schulz died.
The Peanuts characters and concepts were adapted to several half-hour animated television programs over the years.
The Complete Peanuts is a series of books containing the entire run of Charles M. Schulz's long-running newspaper comic strip Peanuts, published by Fantagraphics Books. The series was published at a rate of two volumes per year, each containing two years of strips (except for the first volume, which includes 1950–1952). Slip-cased sets of two volumes are also available.
The series comprises a total of 26 volumes, including a final volume that was a collection of Schulz strips, cartoons, stories, and illustrations that appeared outside of the daily newspaper strip.
These hardcover books were first published between 2004 and 2016. Later, Fantagraphics also began publishing the series in a softcover format.
A companion series titled "Peanuts Every Sunday", collecting only the Sunday strips of the Peanuts series, was launched by Fantagraphics in 2013 and is scheduled to run until 2022.
Schulz began to discuss an anthology of his work with Fantagraphics Books in 1997.
The idea of a complete compendium of all published Peanuts strips was long resisted by Schulz; he did not want some early strips reprinted, as he felt they were not as good as the ones he drew later in his career. Approximately 2,000 of the 17,897 strips had never appeared in a previous U.S. collection.
The first book in the series was published in April 2004 and topped the New York Times Best Seller List.
