About Opus
Opus, the little penguin with the big beak and even bigger heart who sold more than 6 million books and had 70 million readers in the phenomenally popular comic strips, Bloom County (1980-1989) and Outland (1989-1995), now graces the Sunday comics sections of nearly 200 newspapers.
Opus got his break in cartooning when he popped up in Bloom County some 20 years ago and became an instant American icon. But Bloom County and its successor, the Sunday-only Outland, had several characters and Opus wasn“t always at center stage. Now he gets his chance.

it is just about my second favorite comic of all time. but of course Bloom country and Calvin and Hobbs are gone.
so its a 3 way tie between Opus, Pibgorn and chickweedlane. with pearls before swine coming up strong. its the smart comics that just stop. hope these 4 go for a long time
