Description

I can finally add a Sunday strip to my Bloom County collection... and it features the star, Opus the Penguin! Most people today have heard of the singer Barry Manilow... and he was a successful touring artist and household name in 1986. He also had a larger than average nose, hence the alien seeking him out. Of course, the gag is Opus' nose is way larger, which is why he broke the fourth wall, a favorite on-going feature of the series.
