The Complete Peanuts marches into the 1980s as Snoopy’s brother Spike is drafted into the Infantry and a second brother, ‘Marbles’, takes his bow. Also in this volume, Peppermint Patty witnesses the ‘butterfly miracle’, Sally gets fat, Charlie Brown’s team loses its baseball field, Linus is still not Sally’s ‘Sweet Babboo’, more Beagle Scout adventures with Snoopy, and Molly Volley and ‘Crybaby’ Boobie return for a rematch.
“Charles Schulz was an American treasure - an artist, philosopher, and keen observer of human life”
