Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for July 15, 2015

So… that’s it. That was the last weekday Bloom County strip of 1989. It was followed by this Sunday strip which probably will not be posted here tomorrow:

What will tomorrow bring us? The archives have a void at that point, missing almost five months of Outland strips. The first Outland they do have is this one from January 7, 1990, the first Sunday of that year: But for quite a while GoComics has been skipping the Bloom County Sundays in their re-runs, so it’s unlikely that they will start posting the Outland strips as they were all Sundays. So… will they start running the dailies again, back from the beginning? Or perhaps a miracle occurred and they agreed with BB to run the new, Bloom County 2015 strips? (Please say it’s so! PLEASE!)

And so it goes….As the world turns….

Opus! Come back, Opus!

Quick, name one politician you missed as much as we missed Bloom County. I can remember a couple I liked missing….but that don’t count.

Thus ends one of the best strip of my childhood.

I hope 2015 captures the essence of Bloom County, but I’m in “wait and see” mode before I get too excited.

He’s got a second one out now.

Ooooo, man, I HOPE not – not all of us are on Facebook…

Apparently it will be on Facebook…that way he doesn’t have to deal with syndicate editors etc.

Mind you, if he has his own website they could be posted there.

Thanks, mabrndt. The W doesn’t link, but the text does.

I got a new one today on FB
