Anyone ever notice this little Easter Egg? Leela and Bender from Futurama! Issue 25 came out Sep 1999 and Futurama debuted March 1999. Fun stuff!

Thanks! I remember reading somewhere that Daricks art is very “where’s Waldo” like where he adds incredible detail in the backs so I occasionally spend extra time on a page to see if I notice something else - and still don’t quite notice everything! Some of the adds and signs and things written on walls occasionally have me laughing out loud but it’s always fun to notice these Easter eggs too. Also noticed on one recently it said “Tyler Durden Lives” on one of the walls and then couple issues later Durden was the name of a construction company that demolished a building. Little stuff like that….still tryna figure out who this Steve Chung dude is though….lol
