Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 29, 2013

ACK, yet again!

Tippi Hedren knows your pain Lio…

Wait until that bird finds out those aren’t pigs chasing Lio – then he’ll REALLY be angry….

Oh, no! Brought down by a dirty bird! Lio needs a little help from his friends!

Grabbing the vendor’s balloons? Could be painful.

Is the bird also of clay, perchance?

I wouldn’t doubt it.

I’d say it was a woodpecker, but the beak is open. Wish we had the colorized version here, wonder if it is red (a la a phoenix)…

WORDS!—WE HAVE WORDS!!!

Bird looks like a Pteradactyl (or howver you spell that)

A clay pigeon?

Is that a Latexpecker?

Too many words. Lio isn’t supposed to have words.

This is bad!

It’s that territorial pecking pigeon from Catseye that or a jayhawker.

Gasp! There’s no “More-hand” in the last panel. Could this be the end of our hero?
