I’ve mentioned this in the past and it’s still correct: Go Comics has taken it upon themselves to arbitrarily color the daily strips. Charles Schulz never colored the dailies. And now, it appears that the Sunday strips have arbitrary changes in specific panels to convey different moods and meanings. I applaud outlets such as Go Comics for supplying us with an outlet to enjoy Peanuts in the 21st century. I hate the daily colorization and arbitrary panel color changes on Sundays. The modern reader apparently can’t abide “black and white” or a color free comic strip as the artist originally produced it. This is not what Mr. Schulz drew, and I can guess it’s certainly not something he would have approved or wanted.
Was there a circa 1953 Peanuts strip where Schroeder’s face turned green in 3 panels? You can see that detail in the book released by Fantagraphics called “Peanuts Every Sunday 1952-1955”.
I’ll go out on a limb and say CB should leaf that tree alone, find the root of his problem, log on to his PC and branch out to another hobby….mabey woodworking?
Agreed. What is your problem? Thank you for throwing that into one of the most innocent, without-innuendo, charming comics around. Go wash your mind out, or find a dictionary.

I hate to say this Charlie Brown, but the kite is safer with that tree than in your hands.

Tender-hearted isn’t the term I was thinking, Charlie Brown. Weak-willed, maybe…

What is the colourist’s problem? I remember these old comics when they came out and I don’t remember the reds and yellows!!
Reminds me of Breakfast at Tiffany’s when Holly would get “the mean reds.”
