Bender, Leela and Fry by rhinestoner Hello once again.. and welcome back. I've been busy with my work, that's my only and true excuse.. I've been around dA and arounf the Futurama Forums but I've only commented here and there and nothing else. Today I've to say sorry again because I forgot to add tha fanart by a cool new artist around here, her name is rhinestoner, and you'll see 5 arts featuring Zoidberg in three of them (one with Professor Farnsworth), one image of Zapp and Kif, and a final art of the main crew featured today. Another artist once again around here is Yume93 (aka Frygirl) with twelve images featuring mainly the principal characters, Fry, Leela and Bender, and some other characters like Evans, a Brainslug and Danny Phanton (a crossover image).
If you didn't notice, it looks like PEEL and CGEF are offline once again, I've not found any news about why this happened, but let's hope is only for a small period of time. I also almost forgot to add to the Links Section a new Futurama site and buddie called Futuramics... that has info about the Futurama Comics.. so go ahead and take a look.

Ok, take a seat and enjoy this update.. because is great in my opinion :P. The first stuff around here today is some new fanart from some cool artists. The first one is from Graham Dawnson with some fanart that (I kinda) forgot to add earlier (sorry).. three images featuring Leela and Fry in parallel universes, and 2 pics of Philippa Fry.. you can check out more of his art at archonix.deviantART.com. The second update around here is also something I didn't notice earlier, a new group of brand new Futurama icons (that support Vista/Leopard) created by Gedeon Maheux from The Icon Factory. This group features only Heads in Jars, and includes George Takei, Dennis Rodman, Nichelle Nichols, Leonard Nimoy, Johnathan Frakes, Lucy Liu, Marv Albert, David Duchovny, William Shatner, Matt Groening, Richard Nixon, Pamela Anderson, Walter Koenig, David Cohen, Bob Barker and Al Gore... enjoy!!

Well, once again I'm around here to bring you some nice Futurama news and stuff. I've been away from this site for a week or more.. but it was because I finally did what I had to finish so I was partying and resting for a while.. but now I'm back, and is great to know the Beast with a Billion Backs is near to come out.
So, the new stuff around here begins with a new Comic created by SonicPanther that is called The Case of the Eaten Hands. Also, three new fanarts in her gallery featuring Philip J. Fry in two of the images, and one small animation of Bender dancing. Another great artist around here once again is coldangel_1 with an amazing ilustration in his style featuring the 1st Futurama Movie, Bender's Big Score, featured today... bye for today, but I still have more to upload for you to enjoy!.
