Childhood Heroes on Stamps: May 2022

Well, once again I have not posted in late April, so I guess every other month will be the new rhythm for my updates. These are the News I have collected since the last update:

The Portuguese Lord of the Rings now has an issue date. It will be released on 2nd September. I guess like usual there will not be shown anything before the issue date.
The Lego stamp that appeared in the Austrian stamp programme has now disappeared again.
USPS will issue a sheet about the Birth Centenary of Charles M. Schulz later this year. The issue consists of a sheet of twenty stamps with ten designs of popular Peanuts characters and a big vignette of Schulz himself. No issue date is known yet.
The second World Tales stamp from Latvia was not issued as planned on 16th May, but was already issued on 29th April. After the Rundale Castle Rose Ghost in 2021, this one shows Alice in Wonderland. A wonderful issue!
The French stamp programme for 2023 includes a stamp about Pief le Chien, the programme for 2022 includes another Jeunesse issue, but without further details.
Two sheets with ten stamps each about Toy Story will be issued in Japan on 13th July.
After changing the rhythm from odd to even years the Finnish Post announced a new Moomin set for the 7th September. There will be six stamps like usual and the theme is Moomin ABC to promote reading and writing.
The Post of the Isle of Man issued a set about the BBC Centenary of 19th May. There are twelve stamps in total of which Blue Peter and BBC Bitsize can be counted among the children's stamps. Nothing I will add to my collection.
On 6th December a set of six stamps about the comic character Miss 13 Dots will a issued in Hong Kong.
An image of the German Spider Man stamp appeared online. It shows the comic character, which actually celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, and not one of the recent movie versions.
The Polish Kajko and Kokosz issue was released today as planned and is indeed a souvenir sheet.

As mentioned above April and May saw the stamps from Isle of Man, Latvia and Poland, but also Klára Jarunková from Slovakia and Shel Silverstein from the USA.

To my own collection I added a Lotte from Gadgetville stamp from Estonia, Shel Silverstein from the USA and Alice from Latvia. The latter two are however not yet scanned and added to the blog.
