Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 20, 2021

That’ll wake you up.

Maybe this time, Dad’ll actually punish him. Hah!

Dad looks like he is still groggy and hungover from the weekend so what a fitting way for Lio to start off the old man’s work week…..

You lost points with me Lio, that is not funny, that is just mean!!

I thought the school volcano project involved baking soda.

Lio needs to start filming this stuff.

That’s just cruel Lio. Now if it was a box of Cheerios.

At least the milk will help to minimize the agony a bit.

Are you sure you want to stay in the vicinity when Dad feels the full effects of the hot sauce, Lio?

An oncoming eruption is imminent.

Lio needs a fourth panel today…

Panel Four: A fire truck pulling up to Lio’s home

After that, Lio was never heard from or seen again.

Snap, crackle, BOOOM!

Now that Lio is just a little dickens, aint he !

That will definitely spice up his morning….

He won’t need coffee.

Was Lio fixing the cereal for him to eat with his toast and Dad just preempted him? Or is Lio trying to get his dad - again ?

Well, that’s a cruel prank to play on someone you love.

Lio’s channeling his inner Bart Simpson.
