Lio by Mark Tatulli for June 23, 2020

even with the mask, Lio, run for your life!

Lio probably lives in Florida.

Net? We don’t need no stinkin’ net!

So said supporters of the pursuing coronavirus—but then there were fewer!

Run,Lio, run! Forget the butterfly!

I thought the hand sanitizer rain killed covid 19

Lio attempts to catch bug, while bug attempts to catch Lio…

What goes around, comes around….?

Lio’s mask is quite big.

Got to eat IN a restaurant yesterday…YAAAAY

Hey, the virus needs specimens too.

I think it’s right to keep the humor focused on the virus. It’s still out there, even though plenty of people think it’s gone away—or wish it would, or pretend it has. It’s also right to feel weary of seeing it: it HAS taken the national attention for months. Not to the point where we would present a unified, science-based, national response, but still.

You don’t want to catch the bug, but you certainly don’t want the bug to catch you.

I have enjoyed seeing the Covid mocked by Lio, And i hope Mr. Tatuli continues to mock it.

I AM SICK AND TIRED OF HEARING DAY AFTER DAY OF GRIPPING ABOUT THE CORONA VIRUS JOKES.ANYONE WHO DOESN’T LIKE MARK’S STRIPS CAN UNFOLLOW AND LEAVE. GOT IT??!!

That mean YOU, David Henderson and cruiserd

Wow, it’s gonna be a miracle if I don’t get banned for this.

This is becoming a bore.

A funny twist on the old cartoon cliche’ of the butterfly hunter being hunted by a much bigger butterfly. And if it happens on the deck of Noah’s Ark, which has crashed onto a desert island, which has a dungeon of people hanging in chains……

I think Tatulli left Heart of the City because it takes so much time to draw COVID-19 virus.

Another comic about the virus that is as deadly as the flu.
