You would be sent to the principals office, expelled, accused of sexual harassment, and the girls parents would sue the school. Welcome to the 21st century Chuck.
You’re kidding, right? It doesn’t matter one bit what you or anyone “thinks” the coloring could or should be. The fact remains Mr. Schulz never colored the face in this panel in this manner and it’s a completely arbitrary, unnecessary change made by someone who has access and ability to make these changes.
It’s all part of the pointless, garish changes made in this whole colorization of the original black & white artwork. In my opinion, it’s shameful and wrong.
When I did this at ten years old (1960) I got a half hour lecture on “inappropriate behavior” in front of the whole class. Have trouble talking to girls to this day!
back when the greater majority of children were children and not the over exposed victims of loss of innocence that is today’s world.CB is in puppy love with the redheaded girl who doesn’t know he exists because he is CB and Peppermint Patty is in puppy love with “Chuck” because he is “Chuck” and the eternal triangle is ever eternal -

Take some lessons from Snoopy on keeping cool, Chuck.
BTW, the facial colouring in the last panel is way over the top. I doubt that this was how Charles Schulz envisioned it.

She’d punch your lights out, of course, Charlie. At that age, boys still have cooties and girls don’t mind letting them know that.

Commend him on daring or hit him for being an idiot?

Did the imaginary red haired girl just slug him one?

Yeah, specially when you’ll end doing nothing.

If she’s in his class, why doesn’t he know her name?

These days you’d get expelled.

WOW! Head over heels!

When this was originally drawn, it was sweet. Today Charlie Brown would be expelled for sexual harassment if he kissed a girl without her permission.

C’mon guys. We have all been there with the imagination and not the girl.

Charlie Brown, you scoundrel!

It’ll get real embarrassing once you hit puberty, Chuck…

@Rise22Snoopy doesn’t know Charlie Brown’s name, although he can (sometimes) pick the “round-headed kid” out of a police lineup……..

Gosh. I’ve never seen Charlie Brown’s face get that red. Lol

To love pure and chaste from afar … the impossible dream Charlie Brown.

Charlie Brown was truly everyboy, in this instance suffering the pangs of unrequited puppy love.
summerdog86 over 10 years ago
Isn’t CB a little young to be in love? Most boys think that girls have ’cooties" at that age.
rickray777 over 10 years ago
If you were lucky, Charlie Brown, she’d just jerk away; far worse, she’d probably slap you silly! It isn’t worth it.Don’t do it, Charlie Brown.

Ah, The Little Red Haired Girl, the girl with no name (one Wikipedia search later…). Oh, apparently her name is Heather…
