Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for April 02, 2012

And so begins his career as a metalhead manager…

CIA?

Ackth Thptt! The return of Bill the Cat, heavy-metal rocker! Rock on!

And somewhere I managed to get the Deathtongue floppy 45

I can’t wait until Bill shows up on Dr. Drew’s Rehab for free-basing friskies!

And I can’t wait to listening to “Let’s Roll Over Lionel Ritchie With a Tank” again! Rock and roll, baby!

Looks like Bill needs a bath

Today, investment banking would fill Steve’s wish list… ’cept the necktie, perhaps.

Billy and the Boingers return for their Last, Really Last, No I Mean Absolutely Last This Time Last Tour! Rock on! Opus plays the meanest headbanging tuba in the biz! Ttttpppptttt!

Here comes Billy and the Boingers! I still have the shirt. Maybe my favorite story line from this entire ever-lovin’ strip…

Billy and the Boingers!!!

Question: I have a couple of Opuses (Opi?). One with a tie, the other in shower cap and towel. Did they ever market an Opus Krokus? Can’t remember having seen one…

Oh dear. Having Bill show up right after the thought of loose sex has put a rotten image in my mind.

This was my Intro to Bill the cat.

But it’s an Austin heavy metal band, since Bill is giving them the “Hook ’em” sign.

I still have my Billy and the Boingers concert poster for Albuquerque. It’s one of my most treasured possessions.

DEATHTONGUE!

And thus, in the third panel, we have a good example of a model shot for Converse shoes…

Had to change my Avatar to honor this one!

@Vonne Anton

Nice Pick!

They were better as Deathtöngue….

Steve always had a special way of solving problems.

Still have my square 45 and a turntable to play it on.
