Lio by Mark Tatulli for July 13, 2019

trying to remember the comic (at least I think it was a comic) that today’s “Lio” is based on…

where’d you get the worm, Lio? (is she even going to like the worm?)

Honey, I present you with Wormzilla!

I sense a ‘Dune’ theme approaching.

Is the worm symbolic of something else?

Looks like Lio visited The Lair of the White Worm from a Bram Stoker novel.

Broke into the wrong rec room, didn’t ya?

lost me entirely … guess I’m just a linear thinker!

Disturbing.

In a good way.

Huh. Guess years of unrecognized love has finally gotten the better of Lio if he’s enabling The Boy….

Lio provides a service for lovers everywhere!

Please patronize our hero! (Mark Tatulli takes only a modest cut of Lio’s profits….)

Great job of drawing the “Love Is” characters!
