Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for February 26, 2024

Exposure did little for the natives’ stomachs, either.

Wow, that’s going back a few decades.

Alien invasion or evangelicals? Decisions, decisions.

Weird to think Tammy Faye actually redeemed her reputation a lot. Behind the scamming it seems there was an actual decent person.

The air conditioned dog house. That was big news for a while. On the surface, big deal. Until you realized the Jimmy was bilking his dirt poor followers out of their grocery money to pay for the dog house

My favorite, extremely poor taste, very not politically correct, Tammy Fae joke:

Q: What’s the real reason why Tammy Fae wears so much makeup?

A: She’s really black, and doesn’t want to embarrass her family.

I was living in NC during the rise and fall of Tammy and Jim. Looking back, it seems almost surreal the scam they pulled on people….all in the name of God. Such a wasted life they had.

One of Berkeley’s bests. He nailed Jim and Tammy.

Much worse than Vogon Poetry, isn’t it!!

I understand most alien species seal the airlocks and speed right past our solar system.

I always respected and admired the fact that dear Tammy Faye didn’t stop with just painting her face, she drywalled it!

Looks like Berke took inspiration from Star Wars for that helmet.

I think they’re both in Hell. Neither of them seemed to follow or represent the true Jesus, but instead a gospel made by mankind, and of money.

Now THAT was funny! (Especially since for the first few panels I thought i was in a Calvin & Hobbes!)

PTL -pass the loot. Back when this was happening the morning radio hosts in Charlotte had a field day lampooning the “pass the loot club”.

Featuring some words you thought you’d never see on the funny pages.
