Charles M. Schulz with simple line drawings was able to convey a whole set of emotions. The wholesomeness of those lines became jaggier with age but tapped into the universality of happiness.

Peanuts were written and drawn by one man for 50 years. In those 50 years, politics crept in a subtle manner but left a deep imprint. Charles M. Schulz never wanted Peanuts to be a gag comic strip.
