Lio by Mark Tatulli for January 29, 2023

So, it’s not climate change after all.

Klaatu Barada Niksnow

Lio must have mispronounced it. Klaatu barada nikto is supposed to mean Stand down.

Snowy upgrade.

Outstanding.

Too late

Klaatu Barada NNNNNNecktie. Nectar. Nickel. Noodle. It’s an “N” word, it’s definitely an “N” word! Klaatu… Barada… Naughugrhuhuhu! Okay… that’s it!

He got the line wrong. It’s “Gort. Klaatu Barada Nikto!” Gort was the name of the robot; Klaatu was the name of the man played by Michael Rennie.

Gort was careful only to melt weapons and equipment, not people.

I guess they all can’t be funny.

Where is the saucer?

and

Why does he need the control? He can’t pronounce the phrase?

Taking lessons from Calvin ?

A little late for those two it would seem……

I have a sudden urge to hear the single Calling Occupants…..

As an weird kid who grew up watching old B-Movies, this put an big smile on my face. Love The Day The World stood Still

Just in case some young reader doesn’t get the connection, it’s a reference to one of the best SF movies of all time, ‘The Day The Earth Stood Still’.

Brilliant, Great One…

Um… what? That a snowman of Boba Fett?

All these comments and no one mentioned the border around the panel, I like it. Not sure what it is, but I like it! Very Lioesque.

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft

Classic!

Do I need to translate this or was it a made up thing from that movie?

Good Gort
