Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for May 24, 2012

Aha!!! So that’s what the lid’s for……..

The idyllic peace where Milo and Lola are contrasts with the pounded pottied penguin desperately trying to phone the cops while the dangerously deranged addict, Dallas, demands his tobacco fix….

Frame four, has to be the funniest drawing ever done!!!

The way his feet are tied to the chair, looks like Steve has on high heels.

Oh Lola. I respect your art.

Gee Lola, don’t you think “maniac” is a little harsh?

Nice artwork in the second panel.

Lola is SUCH a Hottie!

Opus might want to rethink calling the police. What will they think when they find Steve in his undies and tied to a chair? Kinky time in the old town tonight???

Ahh memories…if I had a nickel for every time I phoned the cops from inside the toilet….good times, good times.

Police: And, uh, where are you hiding sir?Opus: The toiletclick

That is a remarkably sturdy chair.

Breathed tended to downplay his artistic capabilities, but he did do some interesting work.

Ah, I remember when I first read this strip in the newspaper. I still treasure this segment.It always amazes me what the human body is capable of doing when it loses its mind.

Opus: I’d like to report an assault.911: Your location, sir?Opus: Inside my toilet bowl.911: Who would be assaulting you there, sir?Opus: My manager and friend, Steve Dallas.911: Could you describe him, please, for the officers arriving on scene?Opus: He’s tied to a chair, and screaming.911: What is he wearing?Opus: Tidy-whities.911: Is that all he’s wearing?Opus; Ye - wait! No! (Loud roaring, gurgling sound) Heeelllll—-911: Sir? Sir?

Well, they don’t make toilets like that anymore!
