'''Langdon Cobb''' is an actor who speaks with a [[United Kingdom|British]] accent and wears a suit with an ascot (complete with a stickpin) and a bread bag over his head.{{er|7ACV04}}<br />
<br />
== Biography ==<br />
<br />
[[File:Langdon Cobb.jpg|thumb|left|A [[character]] design of Langdon Cobb released by {{ctf}} on 21 May [[2012]].]]<br />
<br />
Langdon Cobb is, apparently, the "world's greatest actor", but always keeps his bread bag over his head. The reasoning given by Cobb to the public for this is because he wants to be known for his acting and not for his looks. The real reason why he wears the bag, however, is that he is actually a [[Quantum lichen]], an alien species that feeds on the attention of others. Looking upon a Quantum Lichen's face, even a photograph, instantly drains a living being's life force, otherwise known as soul, which is the real reason Cobb hides his face. Unlike the rest of his species, who travel from planet to planet to expose their faces and feed, Cobb discovered that simply the attention he gets from being an actor on earth is enough to sustain him.<br />
<br />
When [[Bender Bending Rodriguez|Bender]] managed to [[Bender's camera|photograph]] his face, Cobb begged him not to show it to anyone, even offering to pay Bender. Nonetheless, Bender showed the photo to [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]], [[Dr. Amy Wong|Amy]] and [[Hermes Conrad|Hermes]]. [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor Farnsworth]] concluded that the only way to restore them to normal was to take their life forces back from [[Pookie|Cobb's ego]]. However, the ego needed to be sufficiently weakened first.<br />
<br />
Cobb and [[Calculon]] entered the [[World Acting Championship]], participating for the title of "world's greatest actor". If Calculon could defeat Cobb, it would weaken his ego enough for Farnsworth to extract the life forces. Despite Calculon sacrificing himself by dying on stage to ensure Cobb would lose, Cobb won anyway. Later, Cobb's ego, revealed to be his mushroom dog [[Pookie]], grew huge as a result of attention and praise Cobb recieved and attacked the championship venue. The ego attacked Leela, [[Zoidberg]] and Farnsworth; Cobb then showed them his face, draining their life forces. Bender, however, showed Cobb a great photograph of himself, causing his ego to explode. The crew's life forces were then given back.<br />

<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
<br />
*Langdon Cobb is named after Langdon Coburn, the son of a friend of ''Futurama'' writer [[Dan Vebber]]. The character's surname was changed from Coburn to Cobb due to the fact that the ''Futurama'' staff "thought [it] sounded too much like {{w|James Coburn}}" and "{{w|Cobb salad|Cobb}} is [their] favourite salad.<br />
*Langdon Cobb could also be a reference to the actor "The Unknown comic" A.K.A. " Murray Langston" who in the past was known to wear a paper bag on his head and never take it off, even during interviews and when he went out in public. He also liked to wear fancy suits.<br />

'''Langdon Cobb''' is a British actor who wears a suit with an ascot (complete with a stickpin) and a bread bag over his head.{{er|7ACV04}}<br />

== Biography ==<br />
<br />
[[File:Langdon Cobb.jpg|thumb|left|A [[character]] design of Langdon Cobb released by {{ctf}} on 21 May [[2012]].]]<br />
<br />
Langdon Cobb is, apparently, the "world's greatest actor", but always keeps his bread bag over his head. The reasoning given by Cobb to the public for this is because he wants to be known for his acting and not for his looks. The real reason why he wears the bag, however, is that he is actually a [[Quantum lichen]], an alien species that feeds on the attention of others. Looking upon a Quantum Lichen's face, even a photograph, instantly drains a living being's life force, otherwise known as soul, which is the real reason Cobb hides his face. Unlike the rest of his species, who travel from planet to planet to expose their faces and feed, Cobb discovered that simply the attention he gets from being an actor on earth is enough to sustain him.<br />
<br />
When [[Bender Bending Rodriguez|Bender]] managed to [[Bender's camera|photograph]] his face, Cobb begged him not to show it to anyone, even offering to pay Bender. Nonetheless, Bender showed the photo to [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]], [[Dr. Amy Wong|Amy]] and [[Hermes Conrad|Hermes]]. [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|Professor Farnsworth]] concluded that the only way to restore them to normal was to take their life forces back from [[Pookie|Cobb's ego]]. However, the ego needed to be sufficiently weakened first.<br />
<br />
Cobb and [[Calculon]] entered the [[World Acting Championship]], participating for the title of "world's greatest actor". If Calculon could defeat Cobb, it would weaken his ego enough for Farnsworth to extract the life forces. Despite Calculon sacrificing himself by dying on stage to ensure Cobb would lose, Cobb won anyway. Later, Cobb's ego, revealed to be his mushroom dog [[Pookie]], grew huge as a result of attention and praise Cobb recieved and attacked the championship venue. The ego attacked Leela, [[Zoidberg]] and Farnsworth; Cobb then showed them his face, draining their life forces. Bender, however, showed Cobb a great photograph of himself, causing his ego to explode. The crew's life forces were then given back.<br />

The '''Juice-O-Matic 4000''' is a large device that looks similar to an electronic {{w|juicer}}. In the year [[3000]], it was going to be used by the [[Trisolians|Trisolian]] {{cat|militarie|army}} to separate [[Bont the Viscous|Emperor Bont]] from inside of {{Fry}}, killing Fry in the process. {{er|1ACV07}} However, an alternate method of separating the two was quickly discovered, which was to simply hurt Fry, causing him to cry the {{cat|Emperor}} out.<br />
