Lio by Mark Tatulli for May 07, 2010

Nice wrap job!!

I can’t wait to see what it is!!! Hi Marg!

It came! It finally came!

Ordered all the way from the former Soviet Union …

Oh, wow! The mail-order missile has arrived! Now we can have some fun!

‘Morning, Carmy!

It doesn’t looks that heavy if the postman can drag it. I would question it’s functionality Lio.

Don’t play with that in the house, Lio.

An unfueled rocket would have to be light, otherwise it wouldn’t fly. 95% of the weight of the launchers NASA uses to launch probes and satellites is fuel and oxidizer.

Looks like insufficient postage. Dad’s not going to be happy.

Wow, he must up go a discount on replica V-2 Rockets.

Usually those things are sent air mail.

I hope that’s not a parcel for his Mom.

Calvin & Hobbes were just waiting for a mail-order beanie cap with a propeller. Hooray for Lio!

Warning V2 Rocket may become extremely hot when fired. Do not attach things to rocket by rope. Not for use by coyotes.

LKD, reference to Prickly City?

“Hi Sonny. I need someone 18 or older to sign for this.”

Hmmm…. here, he would’ve probably just got a card in the mailbox saying he had an oversized package at the post office. He has a great postal system where he was living.

Reading everyone’s comments is almost as funny as Lio!

How much cereal did he have to eat to get that thing?

Lio now has his own V2 Rocket cool (I have one on my shelf too )

Wow! the postal service delivers rockets! I can’t wait for my tank!!!

DiscoEd mentioned Lio’s Mom. There was a strip where Lio visited his mom’s grave, but I couldn’t find it just now.

Wow! Someone sent Lio the world’s most thoroughly-wrapped pencil!

Constantinepaleologos, I think LKD was talking about Wile E. Coyote.

It came in finally

How did the post man carry a paper rocket

Hmmmm…. I wonder what it is.

Lew - I’m sure that a person has to be at least 21 to order a V2 rocket. After all, they won’t let a 20 year old even buy a holster for a pistol!

I just found this on the BBC website.

Squishy is just a softie!

Rmom the “post”button still isn’t working right is it? Glad it wasn’t just me!

I wonder if he got that with cereal box tops?!
