Peanuts by Charles Schulz for August 22, 2024

Snoopy’s brother spiked his fiance.

Must have been lust at first sight.

They’re here, but they just ran off. That was quick.

Poor Snoop. Love done him wrong again.

Spike, you devil.

Spike being a bad brother. Today he’d make Reddit.

What a dog!

I literally commented the other day that i hoped Spike didn’t actually love her and here we are. Darn it Spike!

Dannng Spike wow, breaking the bro code.

You ain’t nothin’ but a hound dogCryin’ all the timeYou ain’t nothin’ but a hound dogCryin’ all the time

Well, you ain’t never caught no rabbitAnd you ain’t no friend of mine

She wasn’t good enough for you Snoopy! You should’ve suspected that when she agreed to marry you so quickly.

Spike’s personality as we are familiar with it today hadn’t been quite established yet in 1977. In later strips, he is a pathetic, lonely dog whom no female would ever notice.

So will Snoopy ever forgive Spike? Tune in tomorrow for another exciting episode of…Bride Comes Before A Fallout.

It’s better she left you now, and not after the wedding.

Backstabber! I guess they don’t call him “Spike” for nothing!

Well, I dated your big sister

And I took her to a show

I went for some candy

Along came Jim Dandy

And they snuck right out the door

(The King)

Was that faint from shock or relief?

Where’s his top hat and tux?

Dodged a bullet there, Snoopy!

Snoopy should have chosen Woodstock as his best man … er, bird.

SPIKE !!! (I’m shaking my head slowly). What a home wreckin’ hussy SHE turned out to be. !

And VOILA-you’re off the hook, Snoopy!

Poor Snoopy, stood up at the alter!

Explains his later career in the Foreign Legion—-he joined up to forget.

We’ve all been waiting for this.

Spike, you handsome devil! What a cad!

Oh my god… She ran off with Woodstock?

Oh Nooooo!!!!

One sniff below her tail was all it took.

Great news indeed. Snoopy is one LUCKY DOG. Dodged a bullet.

Snoopy just got dumped at the altar and for his brother, no less! Spike just violated the brotherly code of honor.

Now we’ll never see the bride!

So much for pack loyalties!

Not the way I remembered it ending. I thought that the bride’s father objected to her marrying an obedience school dropout. Maybe that was another storyline.

Spike! You sly dog you

It looks like Snoop’s Num Nups

Why is Snoopy nor dressed up?

Snoopy didn’t get dressed in his wedding tux for this!

Snoopy fainted with relief I think.

I knew it, the girl always runs away with the guy that has a porn actor mustache.

Not the first time that has happened…..

Typical sitcom stasis. No character can ever undergo A life changing event.

You’re saved, Snoopy!

Really, Spike? Even I think that’s way out of line.

I can’t believe that Spike would do that to Snoopy!

Spike is a certified traitor! This is grounds for cutting him off for at least a year.

happens to the best

How can they be here and run away, too?

Spike was so wild for this, can’t believe he straight-up CUCKED Snoopy in a real Peanuts strip, LMAO!

Good grief, knew something was coming, we’re not done with Snoopy yet! ;-)

OMG! I never saw that coming.

Ah Snoopy, these things happen when you get caught up in the HEAT of the moment.

This is very different from the animated adaptation. Instead of Spike Snoopy’s bride ran off with a golden retriever.

see I told ya yesterday. Snoopy never gets married so never gets to pass on his writing expertise to another generation. so sad

Guess Snoopy decided to forego the tux and hat and stick with a simple dog collar.

And there you have it!

Didn’t see that coming.

I suppose you should never marry someone you just o

Spike and his new bride are off to Needles.

The cartoon special this was based on did end with Snoopy getting left at the altar. Just not like this.

Mission failed successfully

No offense but to run away with your own brother’s bride on his weeding day is plain and obvious treason and you are openly back-stabbing your brother. VERY BAD BOY SPIKE! and that goes for the bride too. Sadly though, it means she did not really love Snoopy.

Spike—-sex symbol

Runaway Bride (and Best Beagle)!

Saw that coming
