Coming Soon š At the beginning of April, youāll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
Iād actually call it too late, what with the lead time on strip creation to publication being up to 6 weeks, so this was almost surely created back when things werenāt quite as serious as they are now. Hopefully that knowledge will lead to some Lio āfansā being more understanding and kind towards Mark.
Humour can be cathartic, at times of great stress. The recent series of Covid-19-themed strips here is just what we need now. Seeing the virus as a soap bubble removes some of the horror this unseen enemy is causing.
Itās timely, and helpful ā Itās not too soon, and Itās not offensive.
This is a picture of a coronavirus, so named because they have a crown-like shape. There are lots of strains of coronavirus ā almost everyone whoās ever been sick has been infected with a type of Coronavirus. Is it the COVID-19 strain? Probably. Big deal. Mature adults donāt get offended. Keep up the good work, Mr. Tatulli ā some of us appreciate your efforts to save us from humorless oafs.
Bad taste? Too soon? ehhh, its Lio. This is the most actual frightening one I have ever seen though. I do like to blow bubbles with my grandson, and art students. Well I did before the current plague.

I know āLioā is a bit morbid in humour, but this could have waited a few months.

If I were the other kidā¦I would get MORE than six feet away from Lio and do so at a very rapid pace!

Little kids CAN spread the virus! I donāt mind humor about the virus, but, this one is in VERY poor taste and NOT the LEAST bit funny!

Mark, please stay away from this subject. Itās not the least bit humorous, and rho those suffering, perhaps offensive.

I see it as a commentary on how easily one can spread the virus without knowing it. I do think he crossed the line, though.

Chill out, folks. The soap in those soap bubbles will kill the virus before it can hurt anyone.

Perhaps Tatulli wasnāt trying to be funny. Maybe heās trying to illustrate how easily this virus spreads.

Those bubbles are catchy.

Lio went there, goes there, and will go there. Funny or not, whatever your stance, this strip has people talking, or writing as the case may be.
