Sale alert: Bloom County Comics Bundle

#1 Post by John »

For one week, Humble Bundle is selling the Bloom County Comics Bundle, a collection of some of the very best comics ever made. Created by Berkley Breathed, Bloom County skewered politicians and challenged biases in hilarious fashion throughout the 1980s. Pay anything you want to get the first four years worth of strips. Beat the average (currently $16.83) to get the remainder of the strips, and the average +$5 for the Outland and Opus collections. These are DRM-free copies, meaning you can enjoy them on any device you like.

If you know these comics, you know they're worth this small outlay. If you're new to Bloom County, you really have to check it out. It's brilliant, honestly.

Ah, Bloom County. It and Calvin and Hobbes were the top comics of the day!

For those worried that the Bloom County strips are a bit dated simply because, similarly to Doonesbury, it dealt with a lot of current events, never fear--there is enough random goofiness with Opus, Bill the Cat, Steve Dallas, etc. that the strip as a whole still holds up in my opinion.

Nice find, John! ;-D
