According to Berkeley Breathed he is bringing Opus back to the Sunday comics starting on November 23rd. No word whether Milo and the rest of the Bloom County gang will be back, but hopefully Breathed learned from his foray into a Milo-less comic with Outland, where he eventually brought back all of the popular Bloom County denizens.
