Nods
In the Cafe Fred section, Roger Langridge has nods to many science fiction franchises. The cast of Mystery Science Theater 3000, Bender'', and Han Solo and Greedo can be seen in establishment. There is an alien creature sitting in the top right hand panel though that I just can't quite identify. It is driving me crazy because it looks so famliar, but as with the others it is just cartoony enough that it is hard to figure out. I thought maybe it was Gizmo from Gremlins, or maybe the creature from the McDonalds alien movie (but I don't think they looked anything like that). Does anyone have any idea if this is really a nod to a specific alien, or am I just reading too much into it. -- ''Nate (talk ) 15:49, June 19, 2010 (UTC)
