Just wanted to plug a comic that I'm doing with James Lloyd for Bongo this summer. The Simpsons and Futurama are crossing over for a two issue limited series. More info as I'm allowed to spill it but the book is looking really good.

How are you going to explain the yellow skin/pink skin discrepancy between the two? When Futurama first came out Matt Groening's explanation in interviews was "The Simpsons is a TV show (and still on the air in the year 3000), whereas Futurama is real".

good.
What we're doing doesn't go against that. Matt approved the idea at San Deigo last year as a way of getting around that problem.

Interesting. I had an idea once on how they could do that. Futurama should have tried it as a sweeps stunt and improved its ratings.

They had an episode where they reunited almost the entire cast of the original Star Trek, and Fox ran it before sweeps and didn't promote it at all.
