    Bill, that is, not Opus[^] :-) Cartoonist Berkeley Breathed is resurrecting Opus the penguin from the 1980s comic strip "Bloom County" for a new series to appear in Sunday comics this November. And a movie as well?!?!

      Bill rocks. But i see no mention of his return? Can it be that a simple penguin would be left to strive all alone?

          If he brought back Opus without the rest of the gang (especially Bill), there would rioting in the streets. Really.

                                Bill?! Opus is the man... err... penguin that is. Seriously though, the early stuff was by far the best. As it got older, his style really changed - the humour lost the subtlety. J
