Non Sequitur cartoons about Sparky bio donated to Schulz Museum
From E&P we learn that the Charles M. Schulz Museum requested the original Non Sequitur comics satirizing the recently released Schulz and Peanuts biography from Wiley Miller, which he happily donated. The strips ran from October 3 through November 3rd.
Regarding the dontation, Wiley said,
“The most important tool for a satirist is to have a sensitive b.s. detector, and mine wasn’t just sending up a red flag when I read the excerpts from the book, it was sending up flares and blowing whistles, mainly because I happened to know Charles Schulz.”

Way to go Wiley! I think you b.s. detector was working very well on that. Kind of like a Spidey sense I guess ;)

I’m not so sure not actually having read the book but only excerpts, one can come to an honest conclusion about the accuracy of any published work. Especially when you make the leap to publicly condemn it without thoroughly reading it. Isn’t this the kind of thing Miller usually rails against?
