A Modern Ulysses
By Gillian Block

Another episode of "Futurama":
I will watch it tirelessly,
dauntlessly,

uncompromisingly,
resolutely.

 

 

——

Gillian Block is good at crosswords. She wishes she could play the harmonica. She is afraid of "The Monster Mash," and she likes breakfast in the evening. She is the creator of Fishman Comics.
