Lio by Mark Tatulli for March 07, 2012

And why would he want to travel there?

I have a bad feeling that Eva Rose going to steal Lio’s T.T.P.s; so long, Lio!

That poor girl, she’s had her face eaten off!

Looks like the school bully is about to be eaten by a dinosaur.

There’s been a Japanese movie about this already. Pills only work if you’re concentrating on the specific date you want to visit.

Time release capsules???

Give it “time”!!

I see Lio is a lefty.

Cafetorium is a portmanteau of cafeteria and auditorium. Most schools have one, or else a gymnatorium, since using space for a dedicated auditorium is generally a waste.

tyvm ;-) sometimes I do need a clue…

Should have put it in his own drink; the bully would be more likely to drink it.

Amen!

Well, you two are a hard act to follow.

When the bully drinks his laced glass of (whatever it is) and is sent scurrying through the eons, Lio will be next to Eva Rose. Perhaps planned, but also perhaps reckless?

???…excluding #6 ?

if he disappears it will still leave a big vacuum between those two.

THAT’S where it comes from……..and yet I like it.

Glad everyone is trying to make peace here.

One artist, Brooke McEldowney who pens Pibgorn, specifically and succesfully demanded the comments section be removed from his strip. In part, he felt the atmosphere was at odds with his intentions in creating and displaying his art.

Can’t say I blame him. There is enough aggravation in our day-to-day world that perhaps we could do better to leave it outside this forum and focus on enjoyment of Lio’s world.

That said – some of the funniest comments I’ve ever read have been right on this board.

Time release capsules??? Too funny DuHhozr!

Unless the pills are programmed for the specific date.

I’m so old that in elementary school we ate lunch at our desks. We had an “all purpose room” for assemblies, music (massive sing alongs), square dancing, etc. And no – this wasn’t in some backwater area – this was in a 1960’s Washington DC suburb.

Someone alert Jim Croce – Lio’s figured out how to save time in a bottle!

Thank you for the information about cafetorium. I never knew that, and always wondered since my elementary school had a cafetorium (where I performed as a narrator in a first-grade play adaptation of Kipling’s “The Elephant Child” … I actually developed such stage fright during rehearsal, they put another kid in. Then he got sick the day of the performance … but I digress…)

As for religion, I count myself a born-again Christian and yet still find myself appalled by the things people will say and do in God’s name (starting with WBC, Pat Robertson, etc.)

lol lio

Plop, plopfizz, fizz***Hey, what time is it?

Looks like Lio will do whatever it takes to get Eva’s attention and protect her.

What..?!? You mean Lio needs an order of protection against Eva vicious behaviour..

This comic is not funny, nor are the comments.

Where have Number Six’s and Raspberryice54’s comments gone?

I have thee letters of transit. Hide me Rick.

Where will this lead our hero and his faceless object of affection?

@ Number Two : I wondered why my ‘Amen’ was hanging in the middle of nowhere.

Eva Rose has lost face. Not good to see.

A combination Cafeteria and Auditorium.

I called the Crematorium and they were out of cream…

Ca 1960, Canada: Lunch at your desk and a gymnasium with a stage at one end for “assemblies.”

And Mark himself has told me that Lio uses the most convenient hand in each panel — no dexters involved!

So, what happens with time travel pills? Yesterday’s indigestion. No clue in the strip.
