Yes as in Opus the Penguin. I just did a BLOG there "Why Opus" I loved reading
Bloom County and Outland. Berkeley Breathed had some great strips. I
particularly like # 9 of his top picks. There are some that say that Tux is an
Opus love child from Lola Granola. 

Jettard is not bad unless that's all you do. I'd rather have 3 jets flying
protecting the base than sitting on floor to become Tyrant feed.

AKA Mylo but not Bloom.
