Peanuts by Charles Schulz for October 07, 2012

I never suspected that Linus was the Red Baron!

Good one, Linus — it’s payback for all those times Snoopy tried to steal your blanket!

During WWI, there really weren’t any commercial airlines.Even today, there are no good commercial airlines.

Linus is a tricky little Fokker.

Sopwith made a triplane before they made the “Camel”.

Sopwith Camel pilots can be a little jumpy at times.

Curse you, Red Baron.

Awesome, as always, Top Cat.

Was this the first appearance of Snoopy as the WWI fighter pilot?

There were commercial airlines in WWI?

The first World War I Flying Ace/Red Baron episode.

Oh Linus!

LOL xxx

“Curse you, Red Baron! Curse you and your kind! Curse the evil that causes this unhappiness!”

Thank you everyone.

Thanks Top Cat, made my morning. I seem to remember a movie from my youth called, ‘The Blue Max’. One of the main characters was George Peppard. It was very popular at the time and I believe that CS was doing this arc about then as well. Great biplane air battles. I have often wondered if Schultz took inspiration from the movie. This has always been my favorite Snoopy series. A joy to see this morning.

@TOP CAT

Thanks for the animations. LOL.

Ambush!

CURSE YOU, RED BARON!

Talk about reality creeping in on you!

The first flying ace strip… how epic.

Snoopy is also a helicopter pilot…

Sad, the network of trenches were graves.

Ahh, the first of the WWII Flying Ace. He was always my favorite out of Snoopy alternate personas(besides Joe Cool)
