Opus is back
Yes!!! One of my favourite cartoon characters is back. Berkeley Breathed’s Opus the penguin, of Bloom County fame, reappeared a few weeks ago on comics.com, with a weekly strip. Berkeley had announced this some time ago, and now we can read it online.
If you can, grab the Bloom County cartoon collections from Amazon. You won’t regret it.
And now repeat after me - ‘Pear Pimples for Hairy Fishnuts’.

There a few things that bring me back to my favorite era instantly. The taste of the ‘bottom of the barrel’ beer we used to get at the local pub, a few 80s tunes (spandau ballet etc.) and images of Calvin or Bill the Cat. Those were the best times; no responsibilities,no house, no…you get the idea. The point is that an image can be powerful and many of the images that put the biggest smile on my face were drawn by Berkeley Breathed!!
