Lio by Mark Tatulli for June 20, 2010

Too sad….

A time when Lio doesn’t have to act, be, or do anything weird just for the sake of being weird (and probably for attention, too)? That’s crazy talk.

A little bit of “Wall-e” in this strip????

Old Lio is still cute. But I hope 2101 has more than just holographs of flowers!

I do hope he finds his way home.

terrible comic.

Lessee; no flowers, therefore no bees, therefore – Uh-Oh!

Where’s all the real food gone?

They took all the trees, And put’em in a tree museum, And charged the people, A dollar and a half to see them…..

:(

yeah someday…….huh………there will be no life…!!

Lio must have moved to China

I hope somebody, at some point in time, corrects how he uses a cane

Less likely to get it caught in your clothes that way.

Ask Peter, Paul and Mary, baslim.

@pbarnrob: Soylent Green!

For those who don’t know, watch the movie.

HUGH Don’t it always seem to go Bet you don’t know what you got till it;s gone They took paradise, put up a parking lot.

Joni——–and someone who had the nerve to cover Joni’s song.

poor lio

Since when to comic characters age? What is this, Gasoline Alley?

They paved paradise but I don’t even see a big yellow taxi.

Joni Mitchell with Bob Dylan and Counting Crows doing slightly varied covers.

I think I also detect a little nod to Blade Runner here. Nothing I can point to specifically, it’s just the vibe that I’m getting,

Thanks for blowing my Fathers Day

♫♪♪Where have all the flowers gone, long time passing?♫♪♫

When did Lio move to the gulf coast?

…

… and BP is ready to try Plan 3497 to stop the leak.

I used to like fresh air, When it was there. And water, I enjoyed it. ‘Til we destroyed it. Each day the land’s diminished. I think I’m finished.

(Henry Gibson, “Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In.”)

great comic

♫♪♫Those……………………………………..

were the days my friend, we thought would never end We’d sing and dance…………………♪♫♪

La la la la la

This is by far the smartest witty comic out there. Most characters only age when there flung into the future like today’s strip

So sad! But hey, it’s ok if the comics make you think once in a while.

Looks like the Republicans kept winning the elections in Lio’s future…

Now what will Granddad Liō give Granny Eva?

draleice, you have a heart of SPAM.

“In the year, 2525…”

And still no jetpack!!!

I’m glad to know male pattern baldness won’t take away Lio’s cowlick! (And he didn’t turn it into a comb over!!)

Sad, but lovely. Thanks for the potent message, Mark!

Republicans, Democrats, etc. etc…. It’s all show biz and razzle-dazzle, to keep the marks entertained.

The outfits really running the show are way past countries and petty geographic boundaries, they operate over the whole planet (and more, as soon as they can figure out a way to take advantage of the Sol System.)

Globalization is one thing for ‘multinationals’, and quite another for the rest of us. Someday we’ll figure out that we’re only an hour from anywhere on our planet. And act accordingly.

When was the first 2101 strip? Does anyone have the date? I can’t find it and it’s killing me..XD

Excuse me while I go sob in a corner for a few hours…
