For fans of the "Bloom County" comic strip - and it's latest incarnation, "Opus" - this is big news:
NEW YORK - The Steve Dallas character of "Bloom County" fame will appear in Berkeley Breathed's "Opus" comic starting Nov. 21.
"While he's a bit older, he certainly is no wiser," noted the Washington Post Writers Group. The syndicate added that Breathed received hundreds of letters requesting Dallas' return.
Dallas and the title penguin character in "Opus" were among the cast members in "Bloom County," the Pulitzer Prize-winning comic that Breathed ended in 1989.
