I tend to lose sympathy for Charlie Brown over strips like this. He anticipates being a loser, so of course, he is one. Should we feel sorry for him?
Still, Schulz did redeem Charlie Brown in a later strip. He was repeatedly defeated in marbles by Patty in early strips. Then, towards the end of the series, he was able to defeat Joe Agate effortlessly, winning Rerun’s marbles back for him.
