Now that one has understood the first idea of the story in the beginning of a 1x2 frame introduction, the comic enrolls into being 3x6 (or 2x6 one can say) having two rows with six panels each. The overall structure of the layout and organization of having six panels in the middle and end indicate the intention of not just being aesthetically pleasant to the human eye as it is well thought and neat, but having the climax and plot evolve step-by-step or just panel-by-panel will nevertheless achieve to present the distant message and intention in a simple and easy manner for a general audience  to follow the storyline (in comparison to for example superhero comics in which alterations within the panels are existent so the aesthetics and drawings may seem amusing but sometimes even complicated to comprehend). 

Regarding the setting in general, it is a matter of fact that the use of pale and weak colors excludes any possible sense of uneasiness in this war comic, that is, before panel number eleven. The build up of the setting is once again stated and characterized by Snoopy's imagination, he wears first a party hat and his scarf again to connote the time and place in space but then proceeds to wear his aviator goggles when the comic begins. Snoopy seems to be at a French cafe (we know it’s French because of the Jargon and the effective use of lines to make up a restaurant/cafe table) in the majority of the panels. However, this tension of being unhappy at a cafe is interrupted in the layout when the gutter indicates a change of setting from a war cafe to a cold, rainy outside. Observing the gutter that shifts to panel eleven there is now a visual aggressiveness done by pen/undefined lines that will represent heavy rain. Hence, the cafe setting is clarified as it being his Sopwith camel (or doghouse, that's why it is necessary to mention his imagination) in this gutter division. Lastly, the final panel will also require a gutter for the change of place (heavy rain to home sweet home) and the dark shade at the background will refer as it being nighttime and possible “The End”.

 

There are as well two aspects worth mentioning, and that is in panel number eleven to thirteen, in which the shot goes from medium to large/full body so the reader is able to see how Snoopy is affected by the whole situation. Moreover, the predominant type of bubble is precisely the thought bubble, remarking the philosophical thought of thoughts being more powerful than words, permitting the reader to discern what Snoopy really thinks, truthfully. 

Thus, the series of the “Peanuts” comics fulfill this statement; in the following storyline the reader is rapidly introduced via an allegory to one of the most significant holidays, new year that is. In the very first panel a sense of familiarity is experienced by the audience as soon as the knowledge of the date “Jan.1” is acquired. An explicit allegory with the help of effective imagery will allow the reader to establish a relationship between the happenings since a major audience is familiar with this date and it is seen as an icon of reincarnation and happiness (thus a sense of familiarity is formed, this chronology is well recognized and a now a worldwide holiday emblematic symbol). That very first panel functions as a preparation for how that allegory is going to be evolved, which will later evoke a pity and disappointment in the receptor.

As it follows in panels two, three and four the reader faces the paradox of this holiday, as it should be a cause of contentment and not desperation which is introduced via Snoopy’s character and its metonymic and hyperbolic key phrases. The ambiguity of how a “new year” is confronted in a war context continues to unwind when Snoopy directly refers to an irony just to remark his disappointment towards not being able to have a humane new year celebration. Whereas this character is the personification of most soldiers and veterans, with a metonymy he will symbolize the absolute disconnection of a soldier when it comes to the world in general and even more when the ability of celebrating such an important holiday is indirectly forbidden for him, provoking the reader to feel the need of being empathic towards the entire situation, as the common persona does not face these issues (even a possible feeling of regretting unthankfulness in one’s daily life can be seen, as there is no comparison to these specific issue). Moreover, the hyperbole when he says “I shall go mad” just strengthens the idea of not being able to handle war anymore at all, that with the burden of being on a holiday and not being actually able to enjoy it. Hence, not only the reader will feel vulnerable and unable to take action in the situation, but remorse & sorrow are feelings underlined in the panels analyzed.

Continuing with panels five, six, seven and eight an overwhelming aura takes place regarding the pragmatographia. Firstly, a slight and ephemeral French jargon is used to allow the reader to understand the context of the setting and else (a French cafe). Consequently, a harsh allusion to alcoholism as a coping mechanism to face isolation is perceived when Snoopy remarks an allusion to his past actions and embraces the agony he is feeling. He then proceeds to curse the war and as it is expected his enemies. This character's allusion to war with the burden and pressure of not enjoying the holiday is not simple to immediately comprehend or empathize with a large audience. He later exaggerates and creates an emphasis in cursing everything and just discerning that the way of managing this gets to the point of a dead end and alcohol, a toxic substance, is the only way to feel tranquil at least for some moments can be (is) quite shocking. Also, the visual stylistic device of the use of bold makes the reader see and notice how he is in pain, drunk and in pain. The darker shade in the font and the use of capital letters (onomatopoeia as he screams) will strengthen one's feeling of generating condolence not directly to Snoopy, but to every single individual who got to experience such unfair and inhumane circumstances.

Continuing this journey of pityness, the last column will most likely leave a bitter taste in one’s mouth and heart. The diction and final visual imagery demonstrate the possible lack of recognition or respect that Schulz feels soldiers face throughout their general experience of serving a country.  Snoopy announces “I'm going to save the world” while keeping downcast eyes and a general upset facial expression, which makes the reader reflect “why is he feeling like this?”, being pretty straightforward, the world isolates him and no sense of empathy towards the symbol of the idea of living  as a soldier is even slightly considered; not even in new year!, it is considerably appalling. Like so, the visual image of the rain and his corporal position in panel number thirteen reinforce his invulnerability towards disconnection. Knowing that this is a common psychological aspects soldiers deal with and it is normalized, pitinyess is strongly entailed and concluded in this peanut’s comic.

The storyline ends when the tired flying ace grumbles after his depressive new year’s celebration, and Charlie's Brown satiric and ironic touch when saying “Happy New Year '', after Snoopy faces the grating cruelty that war creates and grows in Holidays.  

 

The entirety of the comic (its nature) is constructed by satire and a “humorous” sense so a major audience can interpret the circumstances in a friendly manner, also the allusion to holidays aid the intention of communication the inhumane ethos of war to evoke that ethical aspect humanity often lacks but requires from time to time: empathy.
