Belated Christmas Cheer
Posted: Thu Dec 27, 2007 12:34 pm
I was looking through Pearls Before Swine online to see if I can find a new panel by the great Stephan Pastis to use for my Avatar... In the search, I checked out the strip that ran on Christmas:

The backstory here is that Stephan Pastis was greatly influenced by the work of the late Charles Schultz (even though there work couldn't be more different) and he wrote lovingly about Schultz in the preface to the Pearls collection which was published shortly after Schultz's death. He's done several homages to Schultz and while I greatly enjoy them all, I thought this one was quite touching.
