But there are glimmers of hope. There are hints of salvation. Because Berkeley
Breathed, genius creator of the much-loved and expertly drawn and slyly wry
"Bloom County" strip from the '80s, is returning to the Sunday comics page.

"Bloom County" was that most rare of comic art. Smart, politically charged,
sardonic, tender, humane, not angry or savage or mean-spirited but still
wonderfully opinionated and liberal and warped beyond normal bounds, still
wonderfully accessible, that perfect balance of cynicism and joy and winking
perspective, with a cast of characters as deranged and delightful and perfectly
honed as a late-night HBO series.
"
And there was much rejoicing....
