Bloom County is an American comic strip by Berkeley Breathed. It originally ran from December 8, 1980, until August 6, 1989. It examined events in politics and culture through the viewpoint of a fanciful small town in Middle America, with a mix of human and anthropomorphic animal characters. The primary cast includes the adolescent Michael Binkley and Milo Bloom, as well as attorney Steve Dallas and Vietnam War veteran Cutter John. Animal characters include Opus the Penguin and Bill the Cat. On July 12, 2015, Breathed started drawing Bloom County again, with new strips appearing on his Facebook site on a very irregular basis. The first revived strip was published via Facebook on July 13, 2015. Renamed "The Bloom County Boys," the strip moved from Facebook to Patreon in 2026 where the full version is available by subscription. Breathed won the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning in 1987, making him only the second (and, to date, last) comic strip artist to win a Pulitzer; the other was Garry Trudeau, whose work has influenced Breathed.
