Delivery Boy Man Comics 1

Delivery-Boy Man Super Special Extravaganza Comic Book
Cover Credits: Matt Groening
Written by: Philip J. Fry
Drawing by: Philip J. Fry
Ink Provided by: Dr. Zoidberg
Copied by: Planet Express Copier

This comic was a giveaway at the Bongo Comics booth at the 2010 San Diego Comic Con and contains four original stories featuring Delivery-Boy Man.

The Origin of Delivery-Boy Man
It tells the origin of Delivery-Boy Man and how he came to Erth from a distant planet that was about to explode, how he was raised by poor farmers who took this alien baby in and raised him as their own, and how this baby then saw his parents gunned down in front of his very own eyes. He then became a rich scientist and was bitten by a huge radioactive spider which caused him to grow mutant claws, which allowed him to open packages to reveal a secret identity which would allow him to fight for justice.

WonderCon Wrap Up

A few weeks ago San Diego's Comic Con sister show WonderCon made its way to the Anaheim Convention Center for a year. Typically the show is held in San Fransisco but due to the facility being remodeled WonderCon needed a new venue for the show. It was great having such a well known show in my back yard (I am an Orange County resident) which was good because I didn't have to spend two (2) hours on the freeway to get there, nor spend almost $200 a night on a hotel room.

SDCC Futurama Returns Comic


Futurama Returns Comic
July, 2007
Futurama Returns Comic
Title: Futurama Returns!
Layouts: Bill Morrison
Penciller: Jason Ho
Inks: Mike Rote
Colors: Nathan Kane
Letters: Karen Bates

This comic serves as a transition from the ending of the Futurama run on Fox and the re-boot at Comedy Central with the ordering of 4 straight to DVD movies that would later be chopped up in to a total of 16 individual half hour episodes to be shown first on Comedy Central.

With the poor treatment that Futurama received from the Fox Network the creative team behind this comic took many liberties in taking shots at their former network, timeslot, and the geek fans who demanded more Futurama

The story revolves around the Planet Express crew completing their original 72 'episode' deliveries and Planet Express going out of business but not before having to relive all their original missions over and over through a time warp thanks to the Carton Network when Planet Express is 'cancelled' from future 'episodes' by the Box Network. Carton Network, however comes to the rescue and orders four (4) additional missions to the delight of a throng of screaming Futurama geeks who are attending Package-Con in San Diego.
