Lio by Mark Tatulli for March 21, 2009

That bites, the kid didn’t even miss him. Although I see that someone stole his backpack.

Why couldn’t he keep the space scooter?

Where's his backpack?

He didn’t even miss the school bus??? What a waste of a great excuse!

Poor Lio, after all that he’s been through, now his backpack got jacked. This IS a ripoff.

Five days later, yet no time passed in the “real world.” Kinda like Narnia. I don’t think it was boring - it was an exciting week!

“It’s true! Aliens ate my homework!”

After that freefall he managed to land on his feet.

Aww it’s done? The Aliens aren’t coming back for him in the night?

…Actually, something tells me they don’t want anything more to do with him.

Who jacked Lio’s backpack?

Some kind of Spaceman Spiff tribute?

“Hey! Where’s my backpack?”
