Sergio is going to be in an upcoming Futurama episode

Post by Jet_Jaguar »

I sent Mark Evanier an email yesterday to see if he knew that Norman... Is That You?, a movie with a brief but funny cameo appearance by Sergio Aragones, was coming on TCM. In his blog post about this movie, Mark mentioned that Sergio has a voice role in an upcoming episode of Futurama:

A while back, I remember asking if there was any chance of the Groo crew appearing on The Simpsons. I suppose that this is the next best thing. I haven't watched Futurama in a long time, but I'll definitely be watching for that episode. Anyone know if Sergio is also doing any Futurama comics?

Wow! That's awesome news! So maybe Sergio is going to be animated as one of the heads in a jar?

I really hope he can get to do a Futurama issue. A cover or anything. Futurama is almost hitting issue #50. He drew a nice 2 page spread in the recent Simpsons/Futurama slipcase hardcover:
