Duplicate them for $0.05 each.  (Get a copy card or something and resell
what's left when you're done.  Or check out all those newspapers and go
to a copy center.)  That's about $7.50 total.  Not much more than the book
will end up costing anyway.  Sounds like a time-consuming pain, but not
very expensive.

Actually, there is a comic book that publishes nothing but the better
newspaper comics.  I do not know if they regularly carry Bloom County.
Inquire at your local comic book store.

Perhaps calling your local newspaper can be of help.  But that might
incur actual royalty charges, size unknown.  <gasp!>  (You mean Berke
Breathed gets *paid* for doing us this favor?)
