Drop unfunny 'Lio'

The "Lio" comic strip of June 8 in the Deseret News depicts Lio calling someone on the telephone, snickering to himself, and then hanging up after an interval without speaking to the recipient of the call. Is this supposed to be humorous? It is also inappropriate to suggest to young readers of the comics that making anonymous telephone calls is funny. It isn't.

I wish you would drop "Lio" from the paper. When I have read it, it is not witty or humorous, and marginally decipherable as having any meaning.
