We were sorely disappointed when April Fool’s Day came and went this year without Berkeley Breathed‘s annual tribute to Calvin and Hobbes in his Bloom County strip.

Berke played us. But it was worth it.

The two month wait has resulted in not just a one page Sunday format strip but an extended sequence being played out on the Berkeley Breathed’s Bloom County Facebook page. The continuity, guest starring Bill Watterson‘s Hobbes, began on June 9, 2021 (see above) and is still running.
