Some fast week, I've been trying to finally end what i'm supposed to finish.. I'm so close, that's the reason of the lack of updates in the past two weeks... but not today. Even when I should be sleeping, I had to update TFP. Today is time for yume93 again, with 5 new images featuring Fry & Leela, Fr alone, a Fry Hole, and a disturbing image of the Robosexual couple.. Fry and Bender lol. I don't know if you noticed, but CGEF and PEEL seem to be offline since I tried to visit those sites a few hours earlier. Let's hope we can see those site back online soon. Still no official word (nothing I could find) abut the release date of the second DVD, A Beast with a Billion Backs, time will say if March is the month of the second movie.

Hello everyone. As usual, when I'm busy, I can't update TFP... but today I'm sleeping over the keyboard to update it... I've a new artist around here, he's 100lbs-o-futurama, and you'll find at his gallery lots of cool Futurama drawings with a very good style (specially for robots IMO). Today you'll see 14 images featuring many robot and not robot characters from the series. I'm sorry I can not write something more but I'm doing my best efford by not sleeping.

I was gonna update a litle sooner but I decided to do it tonight. I'm back from a small trip to some cool volcanoes here in Ecuador, and is time to update TFP why not. Ok, first, I've about 9 arts by sick pickles featuring 2 pics of Leela, one in a night dress and the other as a conquistadora. Also 2 pics of Bender, two of Fry and Leela, an image of Amy, one of Leela yeling at Bender, and the last one featuring all the Planet Express crew. Also, take a look at the news with the title Confirmations and Confessions from The Futurama Madhouse, it talks about a comic named L & A Confidential by Erik Heltner. The comic is, according to the news, based in an original script created by David X. Cohen and Ken Keeler, but since the story is to controvertial, they decided to post it as a fan-comic over there. Check it out, you'll not be dessapointed, there's a lot of more info over there.

I said crazy because I'm about to leave for 3-4 days to a little vacations. So, what's new around here, let me see... The first one is a new fanfic created by a new writer, Nisha, that sent me a story called "Love in the Eyes". The second stuff around here is some great fanart by the always nice Yume93... and you'll see 6 of her new arts, 3 of them featuring shippy pics of Fry & Leela, a cool looking Crew pic (today's feature), a image of Susan (original character), and a Leelataur (Leela + minotaur). I've to run now, but don't forget to come back!.
