Lio by Mark Tatulli for March 21, 2016

That’s what you get for giving your mechanical horse an intestinal tract!

yippy-ki-yi-yay

Robotic or organic, they all need their greens.

That’s all my horse wants to do this season. Can’t blame him, Southern California doesn’t get green grass all that often, he has to get it when he can.

Those look more like a carnivore’s teeth.

Must’ve used a lawnmower for parts.

A horse is a horse, of course, of course, And no one can talk to a horse of course That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Mr. Ed.

Go right to the source and ask the horse He’ll give you the answer that you’ll endorse. He’s always on a steady course. Talk to Mr. Ed.

Lio must have some fissionable material left lying around. Prototype 2 with nuclear rocket hooves. That’s how the cow jumped over the moon.

Pull up on those reins and make him go.

Sorry Lio.

Patience, Lio. Even a Robohorse needs grazing time! It’s the nature of the beast….

Steampunk in the old corral, eh, Liò?

Or to Zelazny. Lio is riding the Steel General’s horse, Bronze. Vane Black (above from Next Town Over,) should be riding Dilvish’s contract demon horse, Black, but apparently he’s busy.
