Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 14, 2017

them rats must be of the Hamelin Space Programme

Or maybe they’re just leaving a “sinking” spaceship…

they realized dRUMPf is precedent.

Those rats all look alike, but judging from the size of the spaceship, they must be clowns rather than clones.

The rats have been reading this week’s Arlo & Janice.

But that book ‘To Serve Rats’ – it’s a cookbook!

Rats leaving a sinking ship. The only ship we have is Spaceship Earth! But there is no place to go.

Whoa…now THERE’S a sign for ya!

They think the moon is cheese.

Last starship to leave earth.

Next stop, the Duchy of Grand Fenwick.

When you see all the rats running away, follow them!

Fare well, little rats! May your space-voyage bring you to a new and happier home. And, good riddance!

Meanwhile, back here on Terra, Lio can continue his nuclear experiments on neighboring cities, before the Apocalypse….
