1530:(and hey, referenced it to a book I co-wrote) and then added "Category:American anti-communists" to the page. I cannot speak directly to Schulz's attitude toward communism, but his contribution to that comic should not be taken as sufficient sign of it. This was just an art job he was helping out with and should not be taken as a sign of his belief; for the same publisher, he was working on Catholic comics, but he was never a Catholic. I suggest that someone without conflicts of interest review that category addition. -- 1179: 243: 294: 276: 450: 829: 735: 708: 1195: 886: 865: 745: 896: 656: 537: 506: 1211: 388: 360: 1163: 1048: 1393: 203: 547: 1337:“Comics historian Don Markstein noted that ‘Spark Plug was such a star during the 1920s that children who enjoyed the comics were liable to get "Sparky" for a nickname — for example, Charles M.

However, this nickname was bestowed just a few days after Schulz was born, and well before even a precocious kid like he was would've been reading. I suggest that the new addition be either removed or rephrased. -- 817: 234: 1120: 1109: 1098: 1087: 304: 1507:
used to be (and perhaps some places still are, I don't know) delivered to subscribers in two chunks, with all of the feature-type material (funnies, magazine, fashion, lots of ad circulars) in a chunk delivered on Saturday while the more newsy portions arrived on Sunday. So the final strip is the February 13 strip which was published in some places on February 12. --

Feb 12, 2000 was a Saturday. The final strip was the February 13 strip, which was a Sunday (as were all of the last few strips, as Sundays were created with a longer lead time than daily strips, so there were a few more weeks of Sundays completed when Schulz's health failed.) However, Sunday papers
