| 2. Bloom County Babylon: Five Years of Basic Naughtiness | 
|
By: Berkeley Breathed
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company
September 30, 1986
It seems like some of the stories are abbreviated in the daily sections. I enjoyed the Billy sections and others, but just don't feel like I'm getting the entire story. Maybe I'm just missing the point of this collection. I did pick it up in my alley for free so I won't complain. The jokes are still relevent. The "A vast Ye maties, Bank of America's about to go belly up" strip has struck a chord with... more

| 3. Billy and the Boingers Bootleg (Bloom County Book) |
|
By: Berke Breathed
Publisher: Little Brown & Co (Juv Pap)
1987-08
Back in the eighties, I considered the "Bloom County" strip to be the best cartoon feature of the time. Therefore, reading this book was a humorous and nostalgic look back to another time in America. There were references to presidency of Ronald Reagan and the Iran Contra scandal, the nuclear arms race, the evil empire of the Soviet Union and the first president Bush.
For one moment, I forgot... more

| 6. Bloom County "Loose Tails" |
|
By: Berke Breathed
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company
1983-04
I recently saw "Secondhand Lions (New Line Platinum Series)" on DVD in which a comic strip artist relives his boyhood with a pair of amazing (if a bit daft) great uncles. At the beginning and the end of the movie, there are examples of the artist's work on the walls and his drawing table. At the beginning of the film, the glimpses of his work are very brief. But at the end, the director gives you are... more

| 7. Classics of Western Literature: Bloom County 1986-1989 |
|
By: Berke Breathed
Publisher: Little Brown & Co (P)
1990-08
This is vintage berkeley. I enjoyed a lot of his stuff from that time period. Many political references that just made fun of the people of the time. Doesn't get more ironic or insulting than that in just a few frames. I liked the read and the way the characters evolved. Yea, Opus! Good stuff. ... more

By: Berke Breathed
Publisher: Little Brown & Co (P)
1995-10
I love the characters of Berkely Breathed! There is so much subtle hummor that sometimes I do miss it at first. Most of the comics are from the Outland strips which I never saw in any of the newspapers in my area. My favorite character is Opus followed by Bill the Cat. I won't spoil it for anyone that's considering buying this book by telling about any of the strips in detail but I think that if... more

| 10. Politically, Fashionably, and Aerodynamically Incorrect: The First Outland Collection (Bloom County) |
|
By: Berke Breathed
Publisher: Little Brown & Co (P)
1992-10
This is the first Outland collection, and Berkeley Breathed writes in the introduction:
"I'm proud of the 'toons in this book. I had more fun drawing many of these than usual. As in Bloom County usual. Look at the earlier Outlands reproduced here. You can see me playing, experimenting, even doodling, looking for unexplored nooks and creative crannies. But when I look at these myself... more
