trevoryan's review against another edition
5.0
An extraordinarily well-made book. Rather than just a bunch of text about how great Schulz and Peanuts is, each comic artists creates their own comic tribute to them. Highly recommended.

I feel like I am not the right audience for this book since I was not a Peanut's reader. This book is still lovely. My favorite tribute is the Lovecraft one, but they are all so pretty and emotional.

Thoroughly enjoyable, especially the ones from artists whose work you already enjoy.

It's a collection of pieces paying tribute to Schulz's work, some of them very personal - one or two of the artists were lucky enough to meet or know Schulz himself, and most of them have some thoughtful things to say about the Peanuts strip, which was pretty progressive for its time. To call attention to a couple of them, Jeremy Sorese has an interesting meditation on where the adults are in the Peanuts universe; Liz Prince explores the Peppermint Patty/Marcia relationship; and Hilary Price recalls a magical afternoon in Santa Rosa. It's a lovely book (apart from the Tony Millionaire contribution, which really misses the mark).
