Peanuts-1962


Some of the early PEANUTS strips in comic books were nearly as good as Schulz's originals but by this point readers were getting a bit of an off-model version and Western's short-lived style choice of doing borderless panels and rectangular speech bubbles added to the oddball effect.

It's got a good punchline, but yeah, there's some oddities in the drawing. The side views are off model, enough that it is noticeable.

The borderless panels, not a fan, but I can accept them.

This is like an alternate universe Peanuts strip.
