BLOOM COUNTY, TALES TOO TICKLISH TO TELL, is Three hundred black-and-white and forty-four color strips bring fans up to date on current affairs in Bloom County, like how Opus dances in an all-female nightclub and discovers the social penalties for penguin lust...and more!
"The collection covers the daily strips from 1987 and 1988. This collection holds a special place for me because I started reading Bloom County in the daily paper around early 1988. Highlighted story arcs in this collection include Bill The Cat becoming a Born Again Christian after his Boinger days, Bill becoming a televangelist who runs Opus out of town over the dangers of Penguin Lust, and Steve Dallas being kidnapped by aliens. Breathed was at the top of his satire game during this period." -Reviewed by Jeremy Hunter on Goodreads.
