Overview (Spoilers Below)

This quarter’s issue of Futurama comics features a fun sendup of Pinocchio in a strip called “Bendocchio”. The premise pretty much retraces the steps of the classic Pinocchio tale just with a little hell-raiser in Bender. The story is told so that Fry and Layla can help coax a bevy of orphans to sleep which works just fine…or does it?

Our Take

Nice job by the producers of Futurama. I had a lot of fun recognizing familiar scenes from Pinocchio just done in the style of Futurama and Bender was hilarious to boot. Hell, we even got to see Bender as a real boy! For $2, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better representation of a visual Futurama anywhere.

SCORE
9/10
