Peanuts by Charles Schulz for February 23, 2013

Someday… but not today.

Why does he love to imagine he has been shot down by Red Baron, instead of himself shooting down many red barons?

curses foiled again

Notice that in the last panel Snoopy uses a speech balloon instead of the thought bubble his dialogue is usually in. This suggests he actually spoke the words out loud. I believe, though, that this was actually an error on Schulz’s part. I noticed it in 1966 when this first ran and watched to see if it was repeated. I don’t think it ever was.

Also, this first time he was shot down the doghouse is not riddled with bullet holes. Thus begins the most iconic sequence in the history of comics. Stay tuned, gang.

Some Day Never Comes.

at least the pilot is alive.

Classic!

Yes you will… Yes you will!

I’m rooting for you…

What are the Royal Guardsmen doing these days? Haven’t heard that song for decades!

Cool!!!!!!!!

I notice he’s not calling himself the Flying Ace, like he did when he was taking off.

..Or Yankee Doodle Pigeon (Not unless Muttley has a say about it!)

Snoopy’s so determined he’ll shoot down that bloody Red Baron of Germany.
