Will it succeed?
From a piece on Comics Alliance...
The notion of making Peanuts comics without Charles Schulz may seem to be a surprising or even controversial move, but that's exactly what's happened with the new 80-page graphic novel Peanuts: Happiness is a Warm Blanket, out this week from Boom! Studios. The first original Peanuts material since the death of Charles Schulz, it was created with both the blessing and involvement of the Schulz family based on the new Peanuts animated special out on on DVD last week.
Both the animated special and the graphic novel were co-written by Charles Schulz's son, Craig Schulz, and Stephen Pastis, who focused on Linus' relationship with his security blanket, and say "90 to 95% of the script" came from existing Charles Schulz strips.
