I was a huge fan of Futurama, and episodes featuring Zapp Brannigan were always among my favorites. In a show chock full of interesting and humorous concepts, I think that Zapp has the greatest potential for a spin-off show. His brash yet daft personality coupled with the great voice work of Billy West (doing a Phil Hartman-esque riff on a Captain Kirk type) make Zapp one of the more memorable animated creations of the last few years for me.
Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!
ReplyDeleteThis cover is AWESOMETACULAR!
make lela a herald or have him picture her as invisible woman
ReplyDeleteFun cover! From deduction, I take it that the artist on Galactus here was Dean Fraser? What's the context there? (Just curious.)
ReplyDeleteThis also put me in mind of something that occurred to me just the other day. A little while back I'd brought up Captain Klutz; maybe you could team him up with the Myth Adventures crew (or maybe just one of them, such as Skeeve or Tananda) for an all-Foglio cover!
Dean Fraser did the Invisible Woman - Galactus was not credited, so if anyone knows the source, let me know!
ReplyDeleteI remember Captain Klutz but I am not familiar with Myth Adventures.
This is terrific! I love Zapp, too; adds a lot of energy to any episode he's in. MythAdventures, by the way was a comics adaptation (by a very appealing artist named Phil Foglio) of a lighthearted fantasy novel series by Robert Asprin.

ReplyDeleteFantastic!
ReplyDeleteI thought at first Galactus might be a Hembeck, but probably not.
On the subject of fun silliness: my six-year old son wants to see a team-up of the Legion of Superpets and the Wonder Pets.
ReplyDeleteWonder Pets?
ReplyDeleteKids' TV show on Sprout or some such.
ReplyDeleteA great show that ended far to quickly.
