The Jetsons and Futurama



This is a team up I would love to see in real life.  I think there is even a connection there - just look at George and Fry.  Red hair, a cowlick in the back, an overbite... perhaps there is a familial relationship there that we aren't aware of.  I can see Bender and Rosie really hitting it off as well.

  1. A genre I enjoy is he cartoon-companion-comic. The Simpsons really exploded with their tie-in comics. The writing really managed to capture the gag-a-minute style of the show. Futurama was just as enjoyable. I haven't picked up DC's updating on The Flintstones - reviews are pretty varied. I think it was Archie Comics that produced the '90's Hanna-Barbera issues, which were pretty good. Futurama's animation is just amazing. With all the crossovers and team-ups going on, this one would be fun to see.

  2. Meanwhile, George's boy Elroy could have his first major crush on an older woman...Leela!*


    *No wonder Fry is trying to shoot them down.

  3. I agree that this would be a fun combo. I've never been a Futurama fan, though I'm a little familiar with the characters... and I agree that, though Rosie would be put off by Bender at first, the two would end up in a moment of passion, with a densely cliche-ridden farewell at the end.

    Curiosity: Is the "Doomsday Device" label part of the original art?

  4. Yeah, Fry was originally destroying Earth.
