Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 04, 2011

Don’t turn around, Lio…

I knew summer is a good spirit :)

that’s exactly what it feels like

So long, cool dude! Lio, LOOK OUT! It’s back, and it’s right behind you!

This is why “summer school” is an oxymoron, as well as just plain evil.

Don’t worry Lio, you’ll meet plenty of new victims, er friends.

Summer can’t leave fast enough for me here in East Texas. Dead lawns, 100 degree temps, and $300 electric bills are no fun.

HADES!!!!

But summer was always so boring.Had to beg to get a ride to the library maybe once a week, instead of walking down the hallway every couple of days.

i hope school doesnt eat lio up….

Beautiful work, sir. That is just how I remeber it feeling as a kid.

take off school and put on snow then i want to buy the print

Mark is right on the money with this one. It’d be even more on the money if the school year monster had “Forced 180+ day commitment” across it’s forehead.

I hear ya Lio, I hear ya

For most kids, the School Monster dies after 13 to 17 years (depending on post-secondary choices). For poor Lio, being stuck in a comic, never growing older, it will never die!!

Summer – sorry to see you go, man!

That ‘Summer Dude’ reminds me of Jimmy Buffett.

I think that sentiment belongs on SCHOOL’S arm!

Mark, this one is excellent—comic and art!

I’ve got a Hear! Hear! on the hot weather comments coming from oven-like Las Vegas!!

hung this up in my locker at school, helps me remember how it used to be back in summer

Pure awesome

Not gonna enjoy Summer if it has to be ugly like that.

Nooooo……. School can’t be allowed to look that awesome.
