Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 05, 2018

hopscotch? no, trap-scotch (you were s’posed to get Eva Rose instead of some other girl, huh, Lio?)

Lio’s getting ready for Halloween next month.

I was expecting this to go like the Cyanide and Happiness short. https://youtu.be/maPWrPzo19U

Now that you caught her, what are you going to do with her?

Let’s face it, she did skip a square. That calls for a penalty.

Hopscotch: Gateway to the Abyss!

“Good, my monster trap worked!”

Shades of a Burmese tiger trap. (Surprisibus! Surprisibus!)

Lio: definition of one sick puppy.

It should have been his gap toothed girlfriend.

This is why you roll Search on EVERYTHING. Check the hallway for traps. Check the altar for traps. Check the beholder in the middle of the room for traps. Check your inventory for traps.

all in good fun? yikes, Lio…

She will be very angry when she gets out of the trap. You better run, Lio

Who else is reminded of “The Last Crusade”?

Gahan Wilson has a cartoon like this.

Technically, we don’t really know that Lio created the booby-trapped hopscotch set-up. We only know that he observed the capture of the reckless little girl. But…well, yes, he probably did create it, likely in hopes to trapping Eva Rose.

In this case, however, “trap and release”….
