Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 21, 2011

An evil spirit with a sense of humor!

Arrgh!

But one can find the strip on the products page. As margueritem said. Lio conjures, but he who laughs last, laughs best.

When your strip is “currently unavailable” it’s usually a good gag, so always use the enlargement button.

Yes, the zoom button is our friend here.

It’s a good thing I pressed the zoom button; with this strip you can never be sure if it’s a joke or not.

It’s “ooga booga” Lio, not “ooga boogie”.

When’s the last time we’ve seen Lio’s so wide-eyed? Or is it pie -eyed?

haha he got pied! hmm… i wonder if it was coconut cream pie

Since he appears to be summoning a demon, it isn’t possible that a reader or three got offended by the apparent “Satanism”, is it?

@bonedog24 – nope, it was booberry.

Looks like Lio summoned the spirit of Curly Howard. Nyuk,Nyuk,Nyuk.

what zoom button? I tried zoom on both window and view of Firefox, and nothing happened. is there a zoom button for GoComics? where? pretty soon there won’t be any viewable comics at all, since weekly they add comics to view later.

Its THE GOVERMENT!

This never happens to the Wizard of Id.

Pie, sounds good this morning.

Lio got creamed by a spirit!

but do you get even with a conjured spirit? And how without sacrificing yourself?

It’s the ghost of Soupy Sales!

Still, it’s a handy little spell for when you’re throwing a dinner party and you forgot the dessert. Just make sure you have good reflexes.

“I AM THE GOD OF HELLFIRE, AND I BRING YOU… banana creme.”

Lio the Barbarian!

That’s spelled C-t-h-u-l-h-u, and you’re going to be in deep slime when he shows up. Cthulhu ftaghn!

It looks like a Swedish/Viking ceremony to me. I’m surprised that margueritem didn’t comment on it, since she is Swedish.It is more often celebrated at winter solstice and not at equinox.
