Bloom County Episode XI: A New Hope by Berkeley Breathed @IDWPublishing #BookReview

 
OPUS AWAKENS! 
In 2015, Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Berkeley Breathed began (without warning!) producing ALL-NEW Bloom County strips for the first time in more than 25 years! Breathed released the new Bloom County strips exclusively through his Facebook page, to the cheers of devoted and delighted fans everywhere. These brand new strips have NEVER before been available in print until now! All the wit, charm and biting satire that are trademarks of Bloom County and Berkeley Breathed are clearly on display and evident in this handsome new volume. Featuring all your favorite characters: Opus, Milo, Bill the Cat, Steve Dallas, Cutter John, and many more. Bloom County has come home and it s about time!"




Berkeley Breathed lives and works in Santa Barbara, California and is the proud owner of a gentle pit bull named Ridley, a deaf dachshund named Milly, and a refugee mutt from the Puerto Rican streets named Pilar--splendidly flawed dogs, every one.


For me the best thing about this book was when Garfield called their cat and John said that even Darth Vader called his son once in a while.  I got a really big kick out of that one!  The rest of it was ok for me. But I am just really not that into this kind of cartoon comic strip thing right now. I think this one would be better set for an adult vs. a teen and someone that is a die hard Bloom's Country and Star Wars fan!
