Peanuts Meets Marvel. Peanuts characters as Marvel Comics superheroes.
I didn't expect much, but I was pleasantly surpised.
Very funny stuff.

But Charlie Brown still doesn't get the Little Red-Headed Girl. :-(

That was much better than it had any right to be. Thanks for posting that.

They were mostly pretty good, but a couple are really outstanding.

I'm more of a DC girl and thus the DKR Snoopy was my fave, but these were all at a high magnitude of rockin'.

I was all prepared to loathe the shit out of this but I couldn't. It was too awesome.
Is that real, live cel-shading and ink work I'm seeing? It looks like inks and paints on acetate.

Man, this plus all the extra (if dated) Peanuts links in the other thread would have made for a super Voltron-esque post.

This was about as awesome a post as I have ever seen in my life. I was also in the "so ready for it to be lame" category but somehow it was awesome. My favorite was the "you hit the jackpot" riff. That and Galactus...

I was hoping for something more along these lines. Oh well, they were still pretty good.

Lucy as the Hulk is my favorite.
When I was in high school someone brought in an x-rated Peanuts knock off comic book, which has permanently soiled my brain. I've never heard the Peanuts Christmas music the same again...

Divabat, I searched for a while but with no luck. This was in the late '80s and the comic was called Penus, if I remember correctly. The same person also had an Archie comic, but I resisted looking at that one.

I'm with bhayes82, from the description I was expecting to see the Penuts characters drawn Marvel style, not the other way around.
Not that Marvel heros drawn Penuts style isn't cool, I like it a lot.

Nathanial Hörnblowér You do know that the guy who designed the Archie characters was a pin-up artist, right?
