Bloom County 2019 by Berkeley Breathed for April 15, 2016

That had better not be a margarita — salt and slugs don’t mix.

What bar any more will let a slug sit there with a cigarette in his mouth?

Panel Three kind of reminds me of Duke from Doonesbury for some reason.

Steve, slug. No real difference.Carry on, Opus!

@Bruno Zeigerts:at least it’s a martini and not a margarita

Steve was in essentially this same position back in 1985. With his romantic prospects hitting a dead end, he decided to order an Asian mail order bride. She never actually made it to Bloom County (couldn’t pay the fare, couldn’t get a green card, who knows?) All I know is that she couldn’t read Steve’s letter and had to have her pet water buffalo read it to her. And Steve’s comparison of himself to Don Johnson (the Miami Vice hunk) probably meant nothing to her. Another thing that happened at that time was that Steve was attacked by Portnoy and Hodge Podge representing the Meadow Morals Squad. Think this might happen again?

Somehow the idea that Steve Dallas, the total cad, wants to get married, is incongruous. I’ve met guys like him. They ARE repellent.

Don’t worry, Steve. The Donald is looking for a vp candidate. Say nice things about his hair and his hands and you’re in.

Or maybe Steve could paddle back DOWN that certain creek (if he had a paddle)…….
