Here are just a few clips of the wonderful Bloom County. The author was truly a genius, making not only simple comedy, but political statements as well. I encourage everyone to take a peek at these clips and the URL for more at the bottom if you like.

    Forgotten? Are you kidding me?

    I'll give you three guesses why my dog is named 'Berkeley' (1/2 lab, 1/2 golden, 1/1 frigging awesome, btw).

    I only think those that read the comic are reading the thread though, actually.

    Mr. Breathed hails from my home of Iowa . In fact, we used to have a large bronze statue of Opus in the Iowa City library. I don't know what happened to it, actually . . . I certainaly do miss it, though, it was super cool.

    I'd say they are pleasant and amusing to read, but not exactly "ha-ha" funny. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    BLOOM COUNTY IS NOT FORGOTTEN SIR!

    I love bloom county, and the author berkle breath [a member of the hallowed winer of the pulitzer [I think it was the pulizter, it was one of those big awards] the only other cartoonist do do such was Gary Larson / far side] has recently started "opus" which fetures the penguin from bloom county in his own strip. Bill D Cat is the best evar, and I love the random characters


    I was shocked when I saw this topic, I've read every single bloom county book that is been out, several times.

    Man I remember how upset I was when he ended Bloom country. I was pretty upset, it was my favorite comic strip.


    Nice memory trip <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
