Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for March 07, 2017

The girls were oblivious of Charlie Brown was right behind them hearing every positive word (until “wishy-washy” got him down).

The classic dilemma… why do gals often prefer bad-for-them guys, and why do guys often prefer no-good-for-them gals?

Nobody hates him, everybody likes him. How things changed! Maybe CB should have remained a smartadze.

The strip is slowly taking its “classic” form. Chuck is becoming wishy-washy (not sure how getting along with everyone is wishy-washy). Vi and Original Patty are becoming, well, begins with a ‘b". Lucy is becoming the classic fussbudget. Snoopy’s thoughts are becoming more frequent.

Well, C.B.’s an underdog

We’re not quite at the hate stage yet, but we’re slowly getting there.

It wasn’t all that long ago that Patty had Charlie Brown in her hope chest, for something she would need on her wedding day!

First I’ve seen “wishy-washy” thrown out there for the strip, so looks like another milestone: check.

Patty, Violet, and Lucy – the original Mean Girls.

“You shouldn’t eavesdrop, Charlie BRown.” “I wasn’t dropping any eaves.”(Bonus for naming the movie reference in the last line.)

They explained his whole character in just four panels.
