First Peanuts Comic - by Charles Schulz for February 13, 2000

Wow! The very first Peanuts cartoon!

First, there was nothing. Then, there was Peanuts. It debuted on October 2nd, 1950. Charlie Brown was only 4 and he wouldn’t have his zigzag for two months

It’s the begginning of the awesome Peanuts.

Yeah. Now I “hate” them

What appended to Charlie Brown’s T-shirt?

Thank you for bringing the genius of Charles M. Schulz to Go Comics!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!

I wasn’t expecting the archive to go back to the first one. This is the best!

Now, to catch up on 50+ years of Peanuts!

HALLELUJAH!

HALLELUJAH!

The all-time best !! There have been 3 constants in my 54+ years, Beatles music, Penn State football, and Peanuts comic strip.

YEY! Thank you!

MOST EXCELLENT!

where’s his striped shirt he’s famous for?!

the best

the one that started it

actually he turns 4 on October 30th of 1950 so he’s 3 right here.

so, this is how everything began

This is the Joe Coolest!

Spoofed in the LIO strip on July 22, 2011: http://www.gocomics.com/lio/2011/07/22

And so it begins.

Looks like Sparky was hardly removed from his “Lil Folks” and “Saturday Evening Post” days here.

Boy, even in the first Peanuts comic strip Charlie Brown was being abused.

61 years later, people are still laughing!

And so it begins….

What did he ever do to you?

The start of the biggest comic strip sensation

@septjetOh well, you still have two left.

This gives memories!

It would take a few years before the characters will look how they do now, but YAY!

Wow!!!

The Great Start To Peanuts, not really for Charlie Brown but it only gets wilder from here on in.

best Peanuts Ever!

Good ol’ Charlie Brown, welcome to the world of comics!

Isn’t that Shermy and Patty in the sidewalk?

FYI The boy is named Shermey, the girl is named Patty. Now there back-up people for Peanuts, but then they were famous.

Birth of an icon!

CHARLIE LOOKS SO PUNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The start 2 the meaning of my life

This is the “Peanuts” strip that started a nearly 50 year legacy. This also marks the first appearance of Charlie Brown, Shermy, and Patty (who is not to be confused with Peppermint Patty). I find it despairing that the introduction of “Peanuts” is hatred towards poor ol’ “Chuck”. This strip was animated in the recent television special “Happiness is a Warm Blanket, Charlie Brown”.

VERY FIRST

And thus begins the Golden Age of comics…

And now, my journey of reading “Peanuts” begins!

AWSOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why did Shermy say I hate him isn’t that mean????!!!!!!!

At the top of my cue.Always has bin, always will be.

i have so much catching up to do :)

At least Peanuts is still here…

They look so different in the first strip. But doesnt every comic? Besides Doonesbury.

Some things never change, even after 50 years…

Whoa! The first Peanuts comic was made in October 2, 1950?

First peanut comic strip! Aaaaayyyyyeeeeee

Long Live Peanuts!

The first Peanuts comic strip from October 2, 1950. Next year in 2015 the strip turns 65 (The same year of the new Peanuts animated movie!)

Love it! Such a classic.

And you will be hated for more then 50 years

Wow! This is what it looked like in the first issue?

The first of the best

Yay for Peanuts!

when does he get snoopy (my sister loves snoopy)

Either Schulz has the gift of long life or he started making Peanuts really young

epic

happy 65th charlie brown and friends

And here comes Peanuts, by Charles M. Schulz. Today at February 29th, 2016, I have started to read all Peanuts comic strips.

FIRST COMIC

Amazing that this came 65 years ago!

the first peanuts comic strip, history was made on October 2 1950

First strip

Here comes ol charlie brown good ol charlie brown good ol charlie brown how i hate hime

This strip is THE first of many things: it’s the first Peanuts comic strip, the first appearance of Charlie Brown, as well as minor characters Shermy and Patty, the first time someone insulted Charlie Brown, the first time someone used the punchline "Good ol’ [wishy-washy] Charlie Brown, and the first time a character talks behind another characters’ back.

LET’S CELEBRATE!!

This begins a fifty-year journey….

One of the oldest strips of all time has begun!

The oldest comic on the site

Also anyone else notice he is 67! now

i love this comic more than everyone and i can make any positive comment at all but my journey is to make 1 hateful comment for each strip but remember: it’s still my favorite comic

where’s charlie browns stripes

did i ask?

Good Ol’ Charlie Brown!

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS CRAP???

The beginning of the greatest comic strip ever drawn.

Yay! The first Peanuts comic ever! It’s awesome to know that Peanuts ran for about 50 years!

Funny. I would’ve thought Snoopy was the first one in the strip.

this has a slight resemblance of nate and artur in big nate

Thus starts it all.

Is this the Big Nate punch line I see here?

Charlie Brown is shorter.

first comic for Peanuts

Peanuts has been a constant companion, consolation and friend since I discovered the little books as a child. Thank you Schulz for offering your genius for our enrichment.

Oh, how the Peanuts characters had evolved over the years…

Shermy has the first line of the series…

That’s more comments than I expected.

How dare you guy its the first comic strip

Where this great comic began

I can not belive that it has been almost 20 years since the death of Charles m shulz

69 years ago

This is the earliest and the first comic strip of Peanuts ever made

And so it began….

It isn’t that funny but he gets better at it

First! Oh, hang on.

and the legend was born the strip that inspired millions the oldest strip in gocomics the strip that one man completely orchestrated for 50 whole years the best strip in the world hands down

Shermy, what did Charlie Brown do to you

Sounds like Nate and Artur in Big Nate

1950!

Greetings from exactly 70 years in the future, Charlie Brown! (And Patty and Shermy.) Happy Anniversary to one of the most successful comics of all time! Much love! <3

dang. “peanuts” has been running for a long time.

i love it

Imagine hating Charlie:(

1950 :0

The start to a great comic strip

Wow, me too!

And so, almost fifty-year amazing funny Peanuts is born!

This is CRAZY. I didn’t think the peanuts was THIS OLD?!?!

holy over 70 years old

Lincoln Peirce, the creator of Big Nate was inspired by Peanuts and eventually gave his main character, Nate Wright the saying, “Oh how I hate her” which he uses when he is tired of Mrs. Godfrey’s rules. I feel like it references this comic strip!

how i hate the old version of his mouth

Yay!

Oh how the strip has changed!

The title is incorrect. It should be “First Peanuts Comic – by Charles Schulz for October 2, 1950”. Or just don’t include the date.

They look so different then they do now…71 years of Peanuts! ❤

The Peanuts have changed over the years!

Poor Charlie Brown, It feels like he’s cursed

lets go MN

Yea supa olld

Yup, this SURE IS the VERY FIRST Peanuts strip Charles Monroe Schulz had written and published. Of course, this was LONG before I was born, but both of my parents had just started first grade. (Yes, they were the same age; my mom is deceased, but my dad is still living and has remarried, in fact.)

The beginning of an era

And thus began half a century of misery for Good Ol’ Chuck.

It looks so diffrent!

I forgot how much Charlie Brown looked like a Lemonhead

We actually read no more of Shermy’s hatred of Charlie Brown. When we next see them together, they are friends, as they remained for as long as Shermy appeared in the strip.

Does anyone here listen to unpacking peanuts?

I clicked on comments to see what everyone had to say about this being the first Charlie Brown cartoon, and instead it was just a bunch of stupidity. Sad.

Look at me in davidf42’s replys!

Durack does not have a good attitude for the future

There is an end to all of this.

a legend was born

good ol charlie brown
