Bloom County by Berkeley Breathed for February 28, 2013

Yeah, and Bananarama was approached to promote the BJ600.

Gene actually turned out OK- successful businessman, stable family life, and never even touched drugs.

Gene’s done pretty well for himself, actually. A kid could do worse than emulate him.

Kiss fan: PC, Microflop software.Bloom County fan: Banana Jr. 6000, Bananaware.Me: Mac, Appleware. Where do I fit in?!

Did Apple run ads like this back in the 80’s? I think maybe they did.

gene has multiple computers. ever see his show.

Boy did all of you people miss the point of this strip.

he kept licking the pixels clean off the screen.

Some people seem unclear on the concept of a comic strip…

I actually still have the original of this Sunday strip hanging in my office… my favorite!

Funny…the picture looks more like Richard Simmons than Gene!

One of my favorite strips.

Huh huh, Berke Breathed said “bananamanager,” huh huh.

This must have been hilarious…thirty years ago.

We always wondered what Einstein might have accomplished with access to a modern computer. Or maybe he would’ve just gotten hooked on WoW and then where would we be?

What!, no bananaphone feature!?

Isn’t Gene Simmons a MULTI MILLIONAIRE ???

I’ve never noticed Breathed"s name written backwards before. Anyone know why it’s backwards?

Only if you’re dumb enough to believe glamrock hype. As Darren noted, Gene was already a good businessman when he first got involved with Kiss.
