Is anyone writing the Peanuts and Snoopy comic strip now?

Answer by  tamkees (3203)

When Charles Schulz died on February 12, 2000, the comic strip came to an end. However, the strip has been so enduringly popular, that thousands of newspapers decided to continue running the strip on a daily basis. The strips you're reading now are repeats, but they're still amazingly humorous and relevant to today's society.

No. Charles Schultz retired and then died around the same time his last strip was published. Instead of find a new creator, most newspapers just re-run the old strips, usually calling it "Peanuts Classics." There are no new comic strips, though perhaps new TV spots may happen.

The Peanut comics are still appearing in certain newspapers on Sundays. Evidently they are being written by someone. Thanks to the internet, the paper is unpopular.
