The Complete Peanuts: 1961 to 1962
by Charles M. Schulz (Fantagraphics Books, 2006)
By the early 60s, Schulz has more or less perfected his Peanuts strip: droll adult wit filtered through the eyes and actions of children (plus the irrepressible Snoopy) and interspersed with tour-de-force visual humour. This is a particularly good volume for Linus.
