Monte Schulz In TCJ #290
February 12th, 2008
Charles M. Schulz died eight years ago today. Seems a lot longer, doesn’t it?
As Monte Schulz revealed here and at Cartoon Brew, he has written a lengthy essay about Schulz and Peanuts for The Comics Journal, that he is calling his final word on the subject of how his father’s biography is different from what he was led to believe it would be.
Fantagraphics has announced that Monte’s essay will be in issue #290 of TCJ, which should go on sale in May. My quick-acting buddy D.F. Rogers has already pre-ordered copies for us. Here’s a blurb about the issue:
Hard truth, subjective take, or slanted hatchet job? Monte Schulz and a roundtable of Peanuts experts and critics probe and debate David Michaelis’ controversial biography of one of the most influential and beloved cartoonists of all time: Charles M. Schulz.

Oh, yeah, we’re always right on top of things here at DogRat!
Actually, we spend most of our time working on computer problems at hospitals, but we let others blog about that stuff. Speaking of Santa Rosa Hospital, mentioned in this post, I did a lot of work there a long time ago. I sure was tempted to be one of those unannounced visitors to 1 Snoopy Place, but I wimped out.
