The Complete Peanuts #12

Woodstock takes center stage on this volume's cover, rendered as a bold, elegant silhouette against a cool blue background — a quietly striking image that captures the little bird's outsized personality. Collecting Charles Schulz's dailies and Sundays from 1973 to 1974, this twelfth installment of Fantagraphics' definitive series showcases Schulz as writer, artist, inker, and letterer — a one-man creative universe. With an introduction by Billie Jean King, it's a wonderful addition to one of the most complete archival projects in comics history.
