Synopsis

  • 2010 is the 30th Anniversary of Berkeley Breathed's Bloom County, the New York Times bestselling and Pulitzer-Prize winning comic strip!
  • Bloom County: The Complete Library Volume 3 collects every strip from July 1984 through February 1986. Many fondly remembered strips are in this volume, including the classic 1984 presidential elections featuring possibly the finest running mates ever for such a campaign: Opus and Bill the Cat. Plus, a cornucopia of ingenious satire featuring the rest of the Bloom County cast: Steve Dallas, Mio, Binkley, Oliver, Cutter John, and all the rest.
  • Most of the strips in this book were scanned from the original art, from the private archives of Berkeley Breathed, to ensure the highest possible reproduction quality. Additionally, this book contains many insightful, biting, and downright hysterical annotations by Berkeley Breathed as he comments on his strips in his own uniquely irreverent way.
