Bloom County 2019 by Berkeley Breathed for November 14, 2017

Ah, yes — Rabies, the dog from AW who also appeared in the earliest Bloom strips. Will we ever see him return?

That pooch has some MAD impressionist skills. Give him/her a contract pronto.

It’s no coincidence that this dated comic strip is coinciding with today’s strip Red and Rover. It has them them watching Star Trek in the 1960’s.

So, Saigon John (now Cutter John) was studying law, eh? It would be interesting for him to open a rival law firm opposite Steve Dallas…

Interesting, seeing the characters at their start.

In the Bloom County version, the professor was changed to an IRS Agent. And Opus was in the strip.

Is that an ancestor of Rosebud our favorite Jackalope?

The Mel Blanc of dogs

There’s Klingons on the starboard bow, starboard bow, starboard bow …

Without a comma in his fourth command, I can only assume the captain’s got it out for Mr. Spock. That or Breathed forgot that Spock was a science officer, not a security guy.

Ah, Nerdhoof, I remember that song oh too well: “It’s worse than that, he’s dead, Jim, dead, Jim, dead, Jim …”

Star Trek, TOS. Not bad for some collegiate amateurs!
