one year passes...

dud: the Big Bang/cosmology/theoretical physics skepticism, the preponderance of new strips that are just "we're living in a nightmare world but ya know it's the little things that make life worth living!!"
classic: most everything else

two years pass...

I recently started a new job... in a meeting of my workgroup, everyone went around the table, introduced themselves, and announced what they had “wanted to do when they grew up,” as kids. (Yeah, I know.)

When it was my turn, I said that I had wanted to be a lawyer — entirely because of Steve Dallas from “Bloom County.”

It landed with a thud. Not a single face in the room, whether Gen-Xer or Millennial, showed even a glimmer of recognition, comprehension, or interest.

I do know some kids who like reading the comic pages in the paper, what's left of them. And to be fair, I have no idea what comics they are reading.

I guess I was expecting a chorus of appreciation from at least others around my age.

Is it weird that he's drawing Calvin & Hobbes? (not really Calvin so far)

I find it weird because he's doing them Watterson-style, and because they're so beloved and missed, it feels like forbidden wish fulfillment.

Figures I can’t find a clean online scan or a Bloom County strip that references Ivana Trump today

feel like there was an expansive sunday-type comic in which opus and milo careened through crazy dimensions until opus made it crash to a halt with milo accusing him of being a literalist

cannot find it online; have i imagined this?
