"
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....
