Well this was a weird one. Is this the character who would eventually become Quiche Lorraine?

Early BC is a fever-dream

Is this blonde woman intended to be the same character as the brunette woman from the previous two comics? Are they all just figments of Milo’s imagination? Early Bloom County is weird.

American “football”:

  • The “ball” is not a sphere, or even a close approximation of one.
  • Throwing and catching with hands is a major part of the game.

Should really be called “hand-egg” or something instead. 'Tis a silly game anyways.

Rick’s Pet Shop in Frederick Maryland has a life sized Bill the Cat plush that I always wanted and offered to buy from Rick.

This one?.. You can find 'em in good condition on eBay for $60-80. https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/ac71e5f0-ea09-47df-bab8-db64c900ca50.jpeg

That’s awesome!

Back when I lived in Maryland and looking at them after seeing Rick’s, they were going for over $200 and were few and far between. I went as far as to write a letter to Berkeley and ask if he might still have one for sale. ACK! I am excited.

DoctorWhookah, in New (Old) Comic Strip Starts December 8

This should be fun. I was a fan back in the day but I was also 10 in 1980 so my understanding was limited. Looking forward to the nostalgia.

It will be fun! I was 8 at the time and don’t think I started following the strip until 1982 (?). Of course in later years I got all the books and read them all, but looking forward to seeing them one day at a time like when I was a kid.

If you’re sexy almost everything you wear will be sexy. If you’re not sexy almost nothing you wear will be sexy.

My cats would eat horse tonsils delight. Yesterday I had to stop one of my cats from eating her own vomit. And she’s the smarter one of my two.

nocturne213,

I have a bag of beef lung treats for my dogs and my son’s cat ate through the bag to get some for himself.

feels like an early idea concept approved a few drafts too soon, and before he found the punchline

Yeah some are pretty rough at the start. We’re only a few days in at this point.
