Lio by Mark Tatulli for September 18, 2023

Ah the typical of summer of an American boy. Shark doing hair seemed to be the most relaxing part of summer.

It’s always so hard to decide which story to tell.

When attached by a crab walk in a straight line. (Dad joke apologies)

Same old, same old… That so hard to find something to write about.

I spent a lot of time hanging out in this black and white cartoon.

I spent a lot of time with a shrink!!

I wonder if the teacher is ready to read Lio’s report…

And where in the world did you encountered these “alleged” crabs the size of dump trucks?

His vivid imagination should produce a hec of an essay.

now would be a good time to introduce a really cute girl who crushes on lio but he only has eyes for the mean one.

Is that a brain in panel 2?

Don’t forget to mention that you helped the other kids destroy their homework yesterday.

Very interesting Summer it would seem….

To be fair to Lio, the assignment doesn’t specify the need to be factual.

Like Calvin, Lio’s essay requires careful editing to avoid self-incrimination.
