'It's a tribute to probably the world's greatest cartoonist,' said cartoonist Patrick McDonnell. Who are your favorite 'Peanuts' characters?
Cartoonists across the nation are celebrating the 100th birthday of "Peanuts" creator Charles M. Schulz as only they can - with cartoons.
The list of participating strips ranges from "B.C," "Dennis the Menace" and "Rhymes With Orange" to "Zippy the Pinhead" and "Zits." Each artist was encouraged to come up with their own way to honor Schulz, who was known as "Sparky." "We left it all up to them. Cartoonists are creative people. When you have a daily deadline, you need to have ideas come to you," said McDonnell. "I think people enjoyed the challenge of coming up with something to express their love and admiration for that guy."
For his tribute, McDonnell repaid a kindness Schulz gave him. In a "Peanuts" strip from 1999, Schulz drew his cartoon boys and girls visiting a museum and Rerun off on the side looking up with respect at a painting of the dog Earl from "Mutts."
