Today I offer A Wish for Wings That Work, a TV special featuring characters from the various comic strips of Berk Breathed, creator of Bloom County, Outland, and Opus. In this special, Opus the penguin wishes for, well, wings that work. Equal parts wit and charm highlight this animated program, with a bit more sophistication than normal Christmas cartoon fare. With Breathed closing the book for good on his characters earlier this year, it makes enjoyment of this special all the more worthwhile.
