The Story

This month, Bongo celebrates Futurama Comics' "Big 5-0!" When Mom goes off on her annual vacation, she leaves MomCorp in the hands of her nitwit sons. Unable to control the company themselves, they look for an imposing and strong-willed woman who will fill their mother's shoes, but they need look no further than an all-too-willing Leela, who is looking for some respect!
