Product Description
Publishers Weekly
今後12年をかけて「ピーナッツ」全作品を刊行順に復刻するというファンタグラフィックス社の野心的な計画によって、この名作が入手しやすくなる。
今回の第1巻では、人々に愛されるこのコミックが初期の段階から進化していく様子に驚かされる。登場人物の顔は横顔かやや横向き、ませた言葉を話す子どもたち、決して大人の姿が登場しない世界―― シュルツは最初から基本的なルールを決めていたことがわかる。また「気さくなチャーリーブラウン」は最初から登場するものの、初期の主人公はむしろ特徴の少ないシャーミーの方だった。ルーシーは、ベビーサークルの中のぎょろ目の赤ん坊、ライナスとシュローダーはまだ言葉も話せない幼児、そしてスヌーピーはただの小さなかわいい犬で、まだ夢見ることもない。
さらに妙に感じるのは、作品独特の浮かれ騒ぐ感じがまだ出ていないことだ。ほとんどのユーモアはとても穏やかで、大人ごっこで遊ぶ子どもたちのものだ。登場人物は、「子どもの典型」であって「人の典型」ではない。それでも、後に偉大な作品を著すシュルツの才能は明らかだ。登場人物は、どれも成長後の性格を示唆しており、シュルツのクリーンで「尊大」な表現は、2年目の終わりまでには顔を出すようになる。いずれにしても、これまで復刊されることのなかった初期の「ピーナッツ」を見ることができるのはうれしい限りである。

From Publishers Weekly
With its ambitious plan to reprint all of "Peanuts" in chronological order over the next 12 years, Fantagraphics is making this comics masterpiece available for everyone. The real surprise of this first volume is watching the beloved comic strip develop from its embryonic stage. From the start, Schulz had some of the ground rules in place: the ensemble cast whose faces appeared only in profile or three-quarter views, the sophisticated language from the mouths of babes and the absence of visible adults from their world. But, although "good ol' Charlie Brown" appears in the very first strip, the early protagonist is the rather colorless Shermy. Lucy is a googly-eyed baby in a playpen; Linus and Schroeder are pre-verbal infants; and Snoopy is just a small, affectionate dog without a fantasy life. Even more odd, the strip's unique hilarity hasn't quite developed yet; most of the humor here is very mild and generally stems from the characters being little kids playing with each other and fooling around with grown-up roles. They're archetypes of children, not yet archetypes of humanity. Still, flashes of Schulz's later greatness are evident. All the characters show hints of the personalities they'll grow into, and Schulz's clean, magisterially expressive line falls into position by the end of the strip's second year. Regardless, the chance to see the early "Peanuts"much of it never before reprintedis a treat.
