Lio by Mark Tatulli for February 16, 2016

The monsters look like the same size as Lio there in the final panel.

It was a bedtime smash.

It almost looks like the sales person is giving Lio the cash. At least that is what it looked like when I first looked at that panel.

Man, I used to love those things too!

No bath for Dad.

One of life’s awkward moments in the household of Dad, Lio, and an ever-growing assortment of monsters, robots, weirdos, and nuclear bombs….

Where does Lio get so much cash that he can just do a “Shut up and take my money!” routine?

Appropriately, there are 13 monsters, per the packages in the middle panel.

Now who’s gonna feed all of them?

…and what?

Whoa!

Lio got a better deal than Bart Simpsons did when he bought the same kind of thing.

What a way to get clean at the end of a long, messy, crazy day!

rubber duckies! on steroids. really bad steroids

I wonder if he thought they were going to turn into real monsters once they grew.

Pays $8… THERE R 11 MONSTERS IN THE BATH!!!
