None of the Berke Breathed comebacks have done much for me. Outland was a flop that gradually morphed into Bloom County light, Opus never really hit and the current revival on Facebook is better but suffers from its platform and Facebook's algorithm choosing to hide it from the newsfeed most of the time.
- ghaff 6y agoI suppose it's unreasonable to expect a given cartoonist to have more than one truly transcendent comic strip in them and how far can you a take a particular style/set of characters/setting/etc.? Trudeau may have done the best job with Doonesbury by aging the characters. Something like xkcd stays pretty fresh too because it has such a wide range.
- jccalhoun 6y agoI always liked the human characters in Bloom County more than I liked Opus and Bill so when he focused more and more on them I found myself less and less interested.
