Bloom County has to be my favourite comic strip of all time. You used to be able to get the books in comic shops here even before the Guardian picked it up for the last few years of its run.

I haven't looked at the books for years, but now you've reminded me I'm going to have to get them out again and read them.

Steve Dallas is my role model :)

I believe I saved a few dozen comic sections from my local newspaper, including the last Bloom County wherein Opus leaves. Very, very good stuff. Bloom County was a very life-affirming comic in palatable way. :-)

They don't have any samples online, and Bloom County is best enjoyed in a larger-than-typical comic size.

  Yeah, not great, sometimes a bit hard to read.
