Lio by Mark Tatulli for January 16, 2025

It’s a Tangela!

Looks like his dad is saying it’s too early for this.

Lio will never be Steve Martin.

Rather an ignominious end to Lio.

Great Halloween costume, wrong season.

There’s a trick to it…

I love the way Dad reacts like this is completely normal.

And this balloon figure we call the Gordian Knot.

Slowly and steadily, Lio. Slowly and steadily.

My intestines got loose.

Quick, Henry, the Flit! (I’ve always thought that Dr. Seuss would like Lio, and we Mark loves him some Dr. Seuss.)

We know.
