Matt Groening
8, Get ready every Futurama and Matt Groening fan, here comes Futurama-o-rama, the very FIRST comic compilation based on the Emmy-nominated television show Futurama.

Waking up in a future imagined by The Simpsons creator Matt Groening, Fry finds a job at an interplanetary messenger service and falls in with Leela, a sexy one-eyed space orphan, and Bender, an alcoholic misanthropic robot programmed to bend things. Blast off with this all-new Futurama comics collection, and leap feet first into a fun-filled future!
