Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 13, 2011

Uh-oh…

Maybe Lio will give the player a cue to scratch. Lio should send a masse-ge.

Hmm. It’s either “Lio in the corner pocket” or “Lio! Wake up! Wake up; it’s time to get ready for school!”

At least he’s not behind the eight ball.

Most likely this is a re-creation of The Color of Money…

Going to be another one of those days…

I’d get the Que. out of there Lio

“O-o-o-o-o-o-oh! I’m dyin’!”“Pardon me, but can you help out a fellow American who’s down on his luck?”

Hope Lio avoids the rack.

Lio needs to chalk this one up to experience

I think that’s your cue to leave!

Lio, corner pocket!

Lio’s about to get smacked with Rover!

At least Lio has a fighting chance here — it’s not like he’s on a giant air hockey table.

“Why every cartoonist needs a drafting compass.”

Apparently Mark’s having an Alice in Wonderland moment: Heart is getting bigger, and Lio is getting smaller…

Lio, look out! Someone’s trying to shoot you in the pocket!

Never thought of Lio as a pickpocket!

How did he get there?

Cybil…
