Hello fellow Bloom County fans!

About this community and how I post the comic strip… The comics are posted in chronological order on the day (usually) they were released. Posting them to match the release date adds a bit of fun and nostalgia to match the experience of reading them in the newspaper for first time. Many moons ago, I would ask my Dad to save the newspaper for me everyday so I could read my favorite comic strips. It really sucked when I missed a day. Only years later, when I got the books was I able to catch up on the missed strips.

Bloom County is an American comic strip by Berkeley Breathed which originally ran from December 8, 1980, until August 6, 1989. It examined events in politics and culture through the viewpoint of a fanciful small town in Middle America, where children often have adult personalities and vocabularies and where animals can talk. On July 12, 2015, Breathed started drawing Bloom County again. The first revived strip was published via Facebook on July 13, 2015... Read more: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_County

With the news of the Lemm.ee instance is shutting down at the end of the month, I have moved the Bloom County Community to my home instance. I will be posting the strip in both communities for a few weeks, but as we get closer to the end I will start to wind down in Lemm.ee.

It's a tad surprising he's survived all this time. While I had him, i

Went through a term of active duty in the army
went through college
lived oversees for a few years
lived in 4 different states, and twice as many apartments and houses

He's one of the few possessions I've managed to keep ahold of despite a fairly nomadic life, but now he's pampered.

Anyway, with the recent cartoon about merch, I'm wondering what other people have. I never got a t-shirt, and it wouldn't have survived until today if I had.
