Peanuts

To be honest, I was never a big fan of the American comic, comic strips. As I was never expose to them in my childhood. Ever since living in America I started to read here and there some superhero or game related comic book, but mostly due to artistic reference. I never really get use to American comic, especially those deeper comic that makes you think. This is actually the first time ever I read peanuts, but I always know about it, and simple just didn’t have time or chance to read it. I like the simplistic art style allow me to realize. I love how every single characters are children and still they told like some old high class educated people. A comic with such simple style and literally no story progression laid its power on the dialogs of the characters. To be honest I don’t get most of the joke or point that they are trying to make, and yet most of them maybe connect deeply in to the American culture that I had not yet understand.

I also watch some animation of the Peanuts, but I feel that totally destroy the uniqueness of a comic which allow you the time to think or realize during each farm. I think that’s why people enjoy reading it besides its interesting or funny, I think another reason comic strip is appealing to people is the time during each picture and each dialogue.

Peanuts is famous back at my home too, but mostly not about the strip itself but more about the iconic character of snoopy. As I always know when I see snoopy but I never really know where he came from. I think the reason it’s so famous is because it’s a dog that dream and imagine thing like flying. However I still don't understand why it is so famous and known as the best story ever told in the american comic strips...perhaps I just don't get it?
