Peanuts Begins by Charles Schulz for March 18, 2023

touché, Pig-Pen

Pig-Pen may be dirty, but he’s also a pure soul.

My grandmother’s definition of a happy boy was ‘A large volume of noise, surrounded by dirt’. It’s in the genes, or the jeans if you prefer…

If my boys came home clean, they where sick..

Pig-Pen always has his head in the clouds – literally!

Pig-Pen will always be dirty but he will always reign as regular boy#3423 for a long time.

Excellent comeback, Pig-Pen…

He’s not wrong.

Was that quote in one of the animated specials?

Are we next to God?

Must’ve been close to the transition to the regular Peanut’s stip. Those characters don’t look much different or younger than the ones in the later strips.
