When “Lio” first came out I stated that Mark Tatulli is a worthy successor to Charles Addams and Gahan Wilson. That makes Lio related to the Addams Family in my book.
It is obviously a male spider. He is using the ‘missing’ left rear leg to groom himself (scratching his rump).
NG49 - The biggest confirmed ‘spiders’ are the ‘Birdeater Tarantulas’ of South America. With a 9” legspan (same as a dinner plate) the Therophosa blondi is the ‘King / Queen of the Tarantulas’.
Black hat guy from XKCD:"in earlier Norse myths,the eight reindeer were actually one steed with eight legs. So this is more accurate. Random little kid:AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!

Ah, Saint Nick, that jolly old … entomologist.

Well, since reindeer are scarce, there were none to be found.

Lio’s more like Old Nick than Saint Nick.

Lio, I see you caught that spider you were talking about the other day. Rather interesting that dad, who is wearing a jacket, is still wearing shorts.

It should be an ant not a spider - they are a lot stronger so could pull a sleigh with tons more toys :P

That spider had to retire from his predatory life due to the loss of a leg.

What’s WRONG with those kids?! Have they no Christmas spirit?

Lio, Does Hagrid know you borrowed Aragog?
Is it me or does everyone think Lio is related to the Addams Family.

Makes me think of Odin’s eight-legged horse.

Ha. Only Lio could pull this one off …

Instead of a red nose, it has a red hourglass marking?

Y’know after all of Lio’s antics why would pop wonder why the kids were running?

Could it be that dad is just so use to his son he does not see the problem?

If it’s a spider, it has too many body segments. If it’s an ant, it has too many legs. But we knew it was a mutant by the size.

It’s a cartoon character. And it’s anything I want it to be.

My mom would probably have a heart attack if she saw that on our roof. I myself think it’s rather awesome.
