   No n'hi ha cap No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. This review stands for the five books in this series. My older brother liked “Bloom County” long before I did. I read my brother’s paperback collections as a kid and now I am collecting the new hardback editions. Although there are some older cultural references to Tammy Faye Baker and Boy George, the strip holds up extremely well. “Bloom County” relies on the characters and Breathed is not afraid to change them, so the strip never falls in a rut. Because he was able to talk about cultural and political topics (even getting his strip put on the editorial page of some papers), Breathed always had new gags and ideas. “Bloom County” never fails to make me laugh and that’s the mark of a great strip. (  ) mvblair | Nov 17, 2020 |  As a child of the eighties, the only two comic strips I followed seriously were The Far Side and Bloom County, a fact which probably says more about me than it does this collection of the first two years of Bloom County's run. Going back over these strips from the early days of Berkeley Breathed's artistic output, it is interesting to see the first glimpses of what eventually become Bloom County's overriding themes, and Breathed's occasional notes explaining possibly outdated cultural references and pointing out early glimmers of what was to come are helpful in piecing it all together. Opus doesn't come into the fold until about halfway through this volume, and neither his nose nor Binkley's hair reach the size and shape I became accustomed to before the end of this collection. An excellent blast from the past. smichaelwilson | Feb 1, 2019 | Una delle migliori strisce di tutti i tempi, un capolavoro che ha segnato i miei anni ottanta e che finalmente IDW ha raccolto cronologicamente in volumi cartonati, con i commenti dell'autore. (  ) plivo | Apr 21, 2018 | Still love Bloom County. It is like a readable time capsule, but it still makes me laugh. ( ) Murphy-Jacobs | Mar 31, 2013 | All the Bloom County strips from 1980 to near the end of 1982, plus some bonus strips from the pre-Bloom County Academia Waltz? Yes please. While the comic itself doesn't start to hit its stride until the second half of this collection (as Breathed himself says, it is with the arrival of Opus that the strip finds its center), this collection is well worth the purchase. Amusing most of the time, laugh-out-loud funny at times. A lot of old political and pop-culture references (with historical information added in on the side of the strips on occasion, in case you don't get a joke because you don't know who, say, Olivia Newton-John is), so I am not sure if this would appeal to those who didn't grow up with the strip.
