Lio by Mark Tatulli for January 03, 2010

All Right, another bully down!

Take that evil doer! Menacing little kids will you! Feel my cold slushy vengeance!

Lio, the Avenging Dragonrider! Four bullies down: one more, Lio, and you’ll be an Ace!

So much of Lio’s work to be done…

It takes real talent to paint an icon on the side of your dragon left handed, in flight.

Next target: The Red Barron.

Please tell me that you were playing “Ride of the Valkeries*” when bombed that bully!

*Sorry if I mispelled the word.

Another one bites the snow!

Lio, defender of the weak and innocent.

Grrr. Why doesn’t my paper carry Lio on Sundays? I’m really missing out!

Mine doesn’t either mjbdiver. But we can get it here.

Valkyries but who’s counting:) i can’t spell to save my life most days. here’s a filk versian of the Valyrie song for a soundtrack… Women with big thighs picking up dead guys go and get Helga this ones not DEAD! couldn’t resist

didn’t I just see this kinda action in Avatar last night?..lol

Yay Lio and Dragon! Boo Bullies!

Only four? Go get’em Lio!

He probably feeds them BULLIES, lol.

Anne McCaffrey is smiling.

One more and he’ll be an Ace

@lamourdelafantom: LOL! You mean those are not the real lyrics???

(Wagnerian operas would be a lot easier to sit through if they DID lyrics like that !)

I love the look of delight on the dragon’s face. Maybe Lio could travel into the past and get the kid who bullied Calvin all the time. That could be awesome. I miss Calvin and Hobbes.

guitarmutt Me, too, but Lio’s a pretty good substitute.

Snowball Fight Lio: “Too Heavy”.

How can we be sure that that big ball of white stuff was just snow?

Well it wasn’t a big ball of brown stuff…or was it camouflaged?

Oooo - Lio’s in Avatar?! Do you think they’ll publish the strip in 3D? So is this a tribute to Anne MacAffrey or Elizabeth Scarborough? Or is Lio just one more Ho hum dragon rider with a bad attitude?

Nice work, Mark.

my own added lyrics are an homage not a parody. i’d happily bring a sleeping bag and cooler to experience the full rung saga myself again.

A friend of mine saw all of The Ring (at The Met, no less!) over the course of a week - he was never the same afterward.

Lio takes down another tormentor of wimpy kids!

Lio’s not a substitute for anything! MT draws a great comic everyday! *Heart and the City worth reading too
