Opus returns!
You can go home again. At least, you can if your name is Opus.
"Bloom County," one of the most beloved comic strips of the 1980s, has returned. The cartoonist who created it, Berkeley Breathed, retired from producing the satirical comic strip in 1989, in part because of an editorial dispute with a publisher. It is remembered fondly, even passionately, by many of us ...and the Sunday-only strips that Breathed produced in its stead simply did not suffice.
But yesterday, "Bloom County" returned. Breathed had teased the return on Sunday with a Facebook posting ... and yesterday the first new strip appeared - once again, on Facebook.
National Public Radio reports that "it's unclear whether Breathed will syndicate his new work in newspapers ... His Facebook postings, Breathed said earlier this month, are 'nicely out of reach of nervous newspaper editors, the PC humor police now rampant across the web ... and ISIS'."
It is a mark of how the world has changed after 25 years that Breathed, if he wishes, can take distribution of his strip into his own hands ... though to be sure, the economics of such a move remains to be seen. That's the world we live in now ... traditional business models are becoming increasingly irrelevant, and traditional businesses are going to have to figure out ways of not being irrelevant in the face of such shifts.
The first new strip showed one of Breathed's main characters, Opus (a penguin of considerable optimism and even more naïveté) waking up and saying to another character, Milo, ""That was some nap!! How long was I out, Milo?"
"25 years," Milo says.
Been too long. And I trust that whatever the business and distribution model, "Bloom County" will be with us for another long run, using Eye-Opening satire and sarcasm and sardonic wit to puncture the world's pretensions.

It's almost as if he needed some time off this week and had to farm it out to Randall Munroe. If XKCD starts turning pronagraphic next week (no mean feat using stick figures) then I'm really going to get suspicious.

Yes, I've been offering bologna-flavored ice cream to my son for a while. Hard-boiled-egg flavor is another popular one.
