Book Reviews of Bloom County Babylon: Five Years of Basic Naughtiness
Book Review: A Worthwhile Overview
Summary: 5 Stars
This book provides a worthy overview of the first five years of Breathed's Bloom County comic strip. Some of the material was previously published elsewhere, but this isn't a merely self-congradulatory coffee-table book, there's new material in here that's found nowhere else. You are able to witness Breathed's maturation as an artist and writer, most obviously pointed up in the increasing sophistication in the way he draws his characters, and in the manner in which he drifts away from aping "Doonesbury," a comic that, like Bloom County, would do well to retire while it's still worth reading. Not unimpeachable, but surely worth reading.
