Strip by: Max

Almond: Oo… Keith Richards… Yeah.
{Almond plays rock guitar}
{Sir Carrot is the emcee}
Sir Carrot: Hey! Let’s give a warm welcome to Cucumber and the Dreamside Blasters, here with their own little number sung to the melody of Olivia Newton-John’s smash hit, “Physical”! Hit it!!
{Cucumber, Almond, and Princess Nautilus are Cucumber and the Dreamside Blasters}
Almond: Yer sayin’ all the things you know I like… makin’ good conversation, I got a feeling yer far from ‘right’… Yer a left wing fascination!
Cucumber, Almond, and Nautilus: Oo, let’s get liberal! Liberal! I wanna get liberal! Let’s get into liberal!
Almond: I took you to an intimate restaurant… Then to a 60’s documentary, let’s skip down to the nuke plant gate, and lay horizontally! Take it, Cuco!
Cucumber: Yes, I’m sure you’ll understand my point of view… Some just think I’m a pink-o! Let’s make the scene at the A.C.L.U. and pour Ed Asner a drink-o!
Cucumber, Almond, and Nautilus: Oo, let’s get liberal! Liberal! I wanna get liberal…
{Sir Carrot holds the phone}
Sir Carrot: It’s Olivia Newton-John. She’s going to sue.

As the title says, I recreated a Bloom County strip with Cucumber Quest characters.
