Peanuts by Charles Schulz for March 13, 2014

Not a big fan of the overuse of red in that last frame. Just seems a bit much.

Could be a good opportunity for the application of ‘Stand Your Ground’ laws.

I agree. Do it.

@stcrowe

I couldn’t agree more. It’s what I’ve been pointing out on Go Comics for some time now…the arbitrary misuse of colorization of the original black and white dailies. Just because certain licensed parties know what colors Mr. Schulz assigned for the Sunday color strips does NOT automatically mean he would have garishly used the same colors to express mood and sentiment the same way. The fourth panel of today’s strip looks more like someone threw a bucket of red paint in an act of vandalism. In my personal opinion…the artist would NOT have colored the character so improperly from head to toe, and the overall re-colorization is a mistake. I can learn to live with the colorized panels as they’ve been done…nothing is going to stop that now. But putting full colors on characters to express moods…that is just plain wrong and an assault on the original form and intent of the strip. Again, my opinion.

With players like that on your team, winning will never become a reality.

Don’t do it, Charlie; she’s not worth it!

Red and mean!

Red or not, I wouldn’t blame him. He might go talk to his therapist.

Check whether your state has the death penalty or not, Charlie Brown…

He gets madder about this than he does about her tricking him with the football. That would make me madder than this. But no, it’s not worth the jail time. Just slap her across the face. You’ll be reprimanded, maybe punished but you won’t go to jail Charlie Brown.

Since Schulz grew up in Minnesota, you are probably right.

Here’s the original.-http://www.gocomics.com/peanuts/1967/03/16

The last panel was a tad scary…

I wouldn’t blame you Charlie Brown. However, I must say, why haven’t you learned by now to keep your pie hole zipped around that beach?

@FanOfPeanuts,I agree with both you and stcrowe about the coloring of this strip, but there have been certain times when I thought the full colors like the reds and yellows add something to the comic. The main thing I wanted to ask is, why after typing out that large, descriptive comment, do you end with stating that its just your opinion? What do you mean by it? Do you mean that after all you said, no one should pay it any mind because its just an opinion? Because if that’s it than i think your wrong( and THIS isn’t just an opinion) I think that no matter who you are or what you say, your “opinion” matters. Again though, this is just my, fact.

Lucy’s sarcasm is just too cruel at a time like this.

But you can expect that from Crabby McCrab can’t you?

Reminds me of the old “Texas Defense:” “He needed kilin”
