Review
"Bloom County is both an escape from and a mirror to our complicated modern world." —Publisher's Weekly (starred review)"Cracking open Episode XI took me back a couple of decades, where I could lay on my bed and laugh at the naivety of Opus, the chauvinism of Steve Dallas, and the unblinking devotion to science of Oliver Wendell Jones. And that’s worth every cent." —Ars Technica

Great news for fans of Berkeley Breathed's classic comic strip Bloom County: he has a new collection of comics out! It's been a quarter century since he's been in the funny papers, but folks like me, for whom Opus and Bill the Cat are old friends and icons, will be delighted to see the old gang back in Bloom County Episode XI: A New Hope.In his introduction, Breathed mentions his literary hero, Harper Lee, whose characters Atticus Finch and Scout took on a life of their own for readers long after Lee was done with them. He writes, "Rare, these: Worlds and characters that are more alive for one's readers than they are for their creator. We who stumble upon them are the Blessed Ones. . . not so much clever as maybe just plain lucky. We shouldn't walk away too easily." After walking away for twenty-five years, Breathed walked back and found new joy, or, as he puts it, "joyfulishness" in Bloom County and its inhabitants.Breathed gets a laugh out of plenty of corners of recent pop culture and social media. Opus's main presidential campaign platform is a return to two spaces after a period. (I'm in!) He pokes fun at the red Starbucks cup controversy. He explores the consequences of letting a baby loose on Facebook. Trump gets skewered. Bill the Cat is Bill the Cat.Like most readers, it's been twenty-five years since I've read Bloom County strips. I remember liking it better than the I liked this new collection. But I'm still happy that Breathed found new joy in these inimitable characters and has "breathed" new life into them.Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the complimentary electronic review copy!
To the uninitiated, Bloom County might seem wholly alien in its concept and execution, as if from another time.That’s fine. That’s because, it is. It is from a better time. And a better place.For those of us lucky enough to have been graced by the original strip during the 80s and early 90s, Episode XI has almost a canonical significance. For Bloom County religious fanatics, this volume serves almost as a lost testament, not unlike the Dead Sea Scrolls. Only in better condition, and available through Amazon (and on Kindle).The richness of the Bloom County editorial tapestry is hard to understate; Breathed won a Pulitzer for his work, and very deservedly so. If you are new to Bloom County, you are cheating yourself of the richness of the experience if you don’t start from the beginning, and Bill the Cat’s various spiritual awakenings (and blackouts) over the course of his several lives, (and rumored deaths), his various cult group affiliations, Communist defections, and peripatetic presidential candidacies.With the utter lack of civility and original thinking in today’s editorial discourse, it is refreshing to return to the tableau of Breathed’s Bloom County, where his familiar cast of characters represent not only us, but also the pitfalls and hopes of society in general, and give us some ability to poke fun at the absurdity of our existence.If introspection completely fails you in every aspect of your life, Bloom County is likely not the comic for you. If, on the other hand, you find this random walk as absurd as the rest of us, you will surely find kinship with Opus, Bill the Cat, Steve Dallas, Milo, Rosebud, Oliver, Binkley, and hopefully all other characters that have yet to return from the crypt of Breathed’s twisted genius of superhuman imagination.Oop Ack!
I had (some how) not heard that Breathed was doing new Bloom County strips so when I saw this is was a must buy. I stopped counting how many times I laughed out loud while reading this. Some great athletes try to keep going well past their prime but in this case The Master has returned and he is just as good as he used to be! So many new situations to see the characters in and so many new pieces of tech for them to get introduced to.What could be the harm of Opus typing in two unrelated words to see how the internet works? He was shocked but I laughed like hell.Double BB thanks for taking it up again, glad to read you too are enjoying the work this time around.I still would like more comments by Berkeley on his own work but I also liked the messages left on facebook when the strips were released.If you like the old strip-buy the new.The book itself is a bit larger than most reprint strip collection, the have black and white "daily" strips and two page color Sunday strips.IDW please do more books like this with some of the modern Masters strips, Pickles, Frazz could be great additions.When's Episode XII? I am waiting.......
Absolutely LOVED it.25 years waiting for this to happen again and it was worth it. If you grew up like I did readin ghtis in the funnies, or love great humor. Buy this book. I got it yesterday and sat down after work and binge read it in about two hours. (Laughing at the jokes and everything slowed me down quite a bit)I only have one complaint.The Last page.That was the end of the book and now have to wait for them to come out again.
