#52 Bloom County Episode XI: A New Hope by Berkeley Breathed
I am old enough to have read Bloom County when it was still being printed in the paper. When it showed up on Facebook one day as a reboot I was thrilled. What I didn’t like was I didn’t always see it thanks to how Facebook works. So needless to say I was glad when the printed version of the strips was announced. The introduction was great and it explained a bit about why the stopped doing the comic. But what I liked about this collection wasn’t just the intro but that he put fans comments about the series in the book and the love that people have for the series really shines through.
This isn’t a huge collection but it does give people an alternative to scouring the web for all the strips. That we are going into an election and several of the strips are about Opus and Bill’s run I think it was smart to get this out before November.
