From OutlawArt comes this half-parody, half-wishful thinking scene of deep space spanking.
Keen-eyed readers will recognize the positioning (and Leela's slacks) from Legends of the
Stargrazers #6 (see Gallery).
Maybe if Fry had actually had the gumption to spank Leela, Futurama would have been a
better show. As it was, we found it very hard to be interested in it, partly because of the
weakness of its "protagonist", Fry. If we had the space, we'd go on at length about the pernicious effects
of political correctness on art. Since we don't, we'll simply point out that the insistence of
the show's creators on having a woman be ship's captain tended to make that the lead role, to
the detriment of the Fry character, who was pretty much of a nebbish anyway. We'll stick with
The Simpsons, thank you very much.
