Humble Bloom County Bundle

In the past 35 years, there have been 2 comic strips of note. This is the one that wasn't Calvin and Hobbes.

While I have almost all of this stuff in print, I'm tempted to shell out for it anyway:

I bought the lot of the BC hardback books ...last summer I think it was. A nice stroll down memory lane. It was all there. Milo's gramps shooting commie ducks...Opus and Cutter lost in the shuttle chair...failed presidential campaigns...the cloning of a cat before bedtime...

Breathed just embodied the times.

I loved his work all those years ago and was sad the day he decided to retire early. Great stuff. It was a liberal comic strip at a time I was semi-left leaning too. It was also very conservative in some areas. It was more of a mirror of the time, if anything else.

My favorite was one strip where Opus (I think it was him, it could have been Bill the Cat) was sitting at a bar with a chick with one of those water fountain hairdos. I do not remember the content at all, but the picture was worth a thousand words. The 80s were weird for the sake of weird.
