Collecting year three of the Bloom County relaunch begun in 2015 The stakes are higher, the punchlines are sharper, and the laughter is more desperate

Bloom County: Better Read On The Throne picks up right where the previous volume left off. When that book, Brand Spanking New Day, came out we said we needed Opus, Bill the Cat, and all their friends more than ever before. Well, what was true then is even more true now

The residents of Bloom County are back to put their trademark tragi-comic spin on the horrors of the last year, so lock all your worries in the anxiety closet for a bit. Who knows? When you come back they may be just the tiniest bit funnier.
