For me, this was like the original voice Charles Schulz had for the TV specials like 'the Great Pumpkin'. I had fun reading this and if felt authentic. The center of the story was snoopy and a little less of everyone else and I was ok with that. Instead of snoopy being the red barron, he was an astronaut going to the moon.
A few of the gang are here, but not everyone. Snoopy makes a great joke at Lucy's expense. She is yelling at him to be tough. Lucy says "Show me you can take this cat! Show me you can pound him! She me your MEAN SIDE!" The next frame snoopy comes out dressed up like Lucy with a wig on. It's hysterical. It cracked me up.
I thought this was well done and really kept the voice of Charles Schulz. I might look for another one of these.

KaBoom comics has done a really great job of writing and drawing new Peanuts comics without getting away for the simple and profound style that Charles Schultz cultivated during his life on this famous strip. They also do a very good job of incorporating Schultz's strips into the mix of new and old. There is great new Snoopy stuff in this volume. That cat next door is throwing a monkey wrench into Snoopy's travels to the moon,by stealing his dinner dish.
Any of the KaBoom collections are worth checking out, and these graphic novels with new material are every bit as fun as the comics and the original strips we all grew to love.

This is by far the weakest of the revamped Peanuts books I've read. The connective plot goes all over the place; more of the book focuses on Snoopy fighting the cat next door than it does on space trips. It still feels like they've stitched together classic strips into one narrative, but it just doesn't work as well. I do have to say, the space artwork is beautiful; probably some of the best included in a Peanuts title. But it just doesn't doesn't pull together as a coherent whole as well as the others have. Not bad, just Okay, but that still puts it at the bottom of the Peanuts pile...

Fun read... a Graphic Novel (aka comic book in book form). I was looking for something easy for this prompt and something desirable. I love the Peanuts comics and movies so this was a no brainer. A fun play on "The Eagle Has Landed" taking Snoopy to the moon! And fun interaction with the cat next door and with Snoopy trying to get extra food.
Using this book for the The 52 Book Club 2025 Challenge prompt #1 - A pun in the title

Newer stories not written by Chs Schulz but he still loved this and the illustrations are all in color which was a big bonus.

The misleading title would leave the buyer to believe this is all about Snoopy and a space mission. It's not. Part if about Snoopy and the moon. The rest is about Snoopy and a cat. The tales are pretty well woven together. Overall the story is bumpy. A better approach would've been to create chapters to separate the different parts of the tale. Maybe even separate stories.
The artwork in most parts is excellent. In others the artwork is not as well done, inconsistent or rushed.
Bottom line: I recommend this book. 6 out of ten points.

Love Snoopy
Growing up reading Peanuts in the newspaper guaranteed I’m head over heels for Snoopy. This is a fast read but sooooo good. The cat next-door gets his butt handed to him when he bird-nap’s Woodstock

The whole thing is colored!
So happy that the whole comic book is colored!
Basically, the comic’s main theme is on astronauts, space and moon landing. Aside from that, snoopy’s need to dog-up and face the neighbor’s cat :)

5 - Stars
I already loved snoopy, and when it gave me the opportunity to look at Vol. 7 , I took it! So I got interested and looked into this one, which is even better. I never really laugh at comics, because they are not funny to me, but other thank that, this comic is amazing!

Great book!
I loved how it was like I was reading it straight from the comic strip! And snoopy has a good sense of humor, it definitely will give you a little chuckle.
