"I just draw what I think is funny, and I hope other people think it is funny, too."

Paranoid:
Here's an interesting dilemma: if you want to talk personalities and general roles, Linus and Angus are clearly counterparts IMHO.  However, obviously there are... 'complications' with that paring if you start getting into the specifics, as Lucy's equivalence to Faye seems pretty much undisputed.  I guess what I'm asking is, what kind of correlations do we feel are most important to us?  Personality traits or relations with other characters?  If it's personality then I vote Linus <=> Angus.  If instead we want to focus on relations then ewe, no! :-o

Carl-E:
No, no, it's not that bad -- just replace the love/sex relationship of Angus and Faye with the brother/sister relationship of Linus and Lucy...

Please.  Replace it, before you think of another single thing.


Thank you for your time and attention.

Obviously a direct, one-to-one-to-one pairing won't work. There are enough broad similarities, though, for me to find this idea interesting. The humor-in-the-small-moment approach in particular, and the fact that characters are allowed to have contradictory aspects to their personalities. It represented " Peanuts" at its finest and it's what keeps me coming back to QC.

The crazy merchandsing stuff was just me having some batshit fun ... But c'mon. You know you'd run outside to see a Pintsize blimp flying overhead, advertising ... well, there are sometimes Allstate ads on the QC site, but I think the certain forumites would prefer to see ... Geico?

Thing is, Schulz wasn't as arc-driven in his comics as Jeph is. Of course, Schulz was in his 70's and hadn't heard much about webcomics when he passed.
