| The Simpsons Futurama Crossover Crisis II #1 Posted on April 9, 2005 | ||||||||||||||||
 Good
news, everyone! You may remember back in 2002 when Bongo brought
out Futurama Simpsons Infinitely Secret Crossover Crisis! Now
after months at work at Bongo, they brought another crossover.The first crossover found the Planet Express crew trapped in the comic book world of Springfield, U.S.A, this time round the citizens of Springfield breach the barrier between fiction and reality and end up in New New York circa 3005! The idea of both creations coming together is a fun thought and it couldn't have gone any better. The story is based on the professor's invention of creating a device which allows characters to come to life from books or comics, in this case The Simpsons. All characters meet their match, for example Leela and Lisa, and share with you the trademark quotes and actions you are familiar with.  Eventually you get to the end of the story and yet find
themselves in another crisis. Bender throws professor's
invention into the library and as you could imagine, The
Simpson's weren't the only ones taken out of the books.Presentation of the comic is done extremely well. Everything fits in perfectly, layout is done with creativity and the comic boxer's are done linearly. The graphics are very sharp, excellent use of colours and textures. Very bright and not dull as seen in a few of the earlier Simpson titles. Limited use of advertisements and no junk mail at the end, which is expected since it's the first issue. The story is excellent and lengthy. Great use of humour from all of your favourite characters and well-known trademark events and quotes. A comic well-done. It's a hard act to follow, I hope the next instalment is this good.
