Writing an introduction for The Complete Peanuts Volume 24 1997-1998 (AUG151474), Peanuts movie producer Paul Feig reflects on the value of Charles Schulz’s timeless cartoon strips.

“I still belly laugh every time I read the strips. When I came onboard The Peanuts Movie as a producer, the first thing I did was re-read all the strips to refresh myself.  I remembered that Peanuts was funny,  but I had forgotten just how funny it was. And how masterfully done it was. Snoopy biting into Lucy’s blow-up pool and deflating it as an act of revenge still makes me laugh to this day. Charles Schulz’s pen and skill at making the complicated look simple and effortless has stuck with me throughout my comedy-directing career. His humor is never forced, or far from pathos and emotionality. He hangs in wordless frames that allow us to take in a character’s inner reaction to whatever has just happened to them. This is not a desperate attempt at getting laughs or trying to force jokes on “we” the readers. This is a confident, self-assured master letting us in on the human condition in its most honest, relatable, and funniest way.”
