Lio by Mark Tatulli for October 01, 2009

He just made Death’s day!

Hmm, I’d wager Death doesn’t receive too many msgs! :o)

Hey, Lio: great job cheering up the old Grim Reaper! (Since when does GR use a smart phone?)

Cool avatar GEE1A - not sure about the top bit though.

If there was anyone’s day I would want to make ; it would d*mn sure be Death’s!!!!!

That would be a great costume for Halloween.

This kid hangs out with the wrong crowd a bit too much for my taste. At least the Henry strip of decades ago on which Lio is in part modeled never went that route.

So Lio went to the costume shop and found a Lio head?

No, it’s supposed to be a costume shirt with an extra arm that holds your head. Just bend over like a contortionist, and work it. -laughs- Note the second frame; the arm is still clutching his head, only he’s upright, and there’s a hole for his head along the torso of the shirt.

ROFLMAO…… : )

Does Lio have Death on speed dial? What would that number be?

lio has the coolest friends who else could say they have deaths cellphone number

LMAO!

LMAO - “Laugh My A** Off ” is funny, however, LMHO - “Laugh My Head Off” would be more appropriate. Was that what it was supposed to say?

No, I like the “A” better…I like getting away with something in the comics, even when I’m really not getting away with much

i wish i had gotten a pic of lio on my phone

Is one capable of finding shirts like that?

I wish, bald 716, my phone’s “send picture” option was on; it’s a little spendy to send and recieve (it’s also my first camera-phone).

How does Lio turn his head sideways like that? And shouldn’t that have gotten him a “WTF” from the Reaper?

Does the Reaper even have an A to LO?

Silly… (trying to ignore the fact that it looks like the “fake-arm” on his head seems to have switched sides)

No, in both panels the fake arm is attached to the costume’s right “shoulder”.

@BlitzMcD – How is Death part of “the wrong crowd?” Ol’ Grim doesn’t do drugs, tag fences, or get involved (directly) in violence… he’s really pretty wholesome. As is the squid.

The figure of Death always seems to be misinterpreted…”Death” does not kill be people or cause one to die, he just comes to you when it’s your time…a very natural thing, in fact. No wonder poeple are afraid or uncomfortable.

The Spanish language version had LOL not LMAO!!!

I love Halloween, and Lio is a little bit of Halloween every day. Plus, it’s October! Woo hoo!

Quantumtorpedo1 maybe the Spanish simply don’t know how to LTAO!!! :o))

I adore holloween , or samhain, and my friend chris wil love this cartoon

Everybody’s Mr. D’s customers; ain’t none of us gonna get outa this gig alive!
