'''Comic-Con Intergalactic''' is a fan convention which is celebrated every year on [[Earth]]. It hosts such panels as "[[Matt Groening's head|Matt Groening's]] other panel". The [[3010]] edition admitted people using {{w|Ewok}} pelt costumes for free. The [[3011]] edition admission, however, required buying ticket one year prior to the event.<br />
<br />
Matt Groening, [[David X. Cohen's head|David X. Cohen]] and [[Sergio Aragonés' head|Sergio Aragonés]] are among the few celebrities known to have been invited to it.<br />

[[Philip J. Fry|Fry]], [[Turanga Leela|Leela]], [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]], [[Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth|the Professor]], [[Amy Wong|Amy]], [[Dr. John A. Zoidberg|Zoidberg]] and [[Hermes Conrad|Hermes]] attended the [[3010]] edition of the intergalactic comic book convention. They saw many products featured in the event. In Ballroom 20, the heads of [[Matt Groening's head|Matt Groening]] and [[David X. Cohen's head|David X. Cohen]] presented their latest [[Television|TV]] show, ''[[Futurella]]''. Toyminator [[DOOP]] action figures such as the Zapp Brannigan doll and XXXL (or bigger) t-shirts were for sale. ''Movie - The Videogame'', ''[[Calculon]] in Delayed and Overbudget 2 '' and ''Videogame - The Movie'' were big attractions, unlike the ''Spaceship in a Bottle'' exhibit and the last actual comic book booth with [[Sergio Aragonés' head]], which didn't seem to be that crowded.<br />

<br />
=== The Costume Contest (3010) ===<br />
In the Costume Contest we can see many people dressed as both popular culture characters and ''[[Futurama]]'' characters. [[Randy Munchnik]], the host, is {{w|Mario}}. Fry uses {{w|Charlie Brown|Charlie Brown's}} ghost costume from ''{{w|It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown|The Great Pumpkin}}''. Leela is {{sw|Princess Leia}} from ''[[Star Wars]]''. [[Dr. Ben Beeler]] is the [[Robot Devil]]. [[Scruffy]] is a {{w|Na'vi}} from ''{{w|Avatar (2009 film)|Avatar}}''. Zoidberg is {{w|Davy Jones}} from ''{{w|Pirates of the Caribbean}}''. [[Dwight Conrad|Dwight]], the [[Indian Boy]] and the [[Chinese Boy]] are [[Brain Spawn]]. Contestant 36 is {{w|Spider-Man}}.<br />
<br />
There are also a few unknown individuals dressed as {{w|Sailor Moon}}, {{w|Where's Wally?|Wally}}, [[Yivo]], [[Mom]] and [[Mom's sons|her sons]] Walt, Larry and Igner. [[Grrrl]] has a [[Decapodians|Decapodian]] costume, but she can only be seen in audience, so we can assume she didn't participate in the contest. Also, after invading the event, [[Lrrr]] was mistaken for Contestant 37 and was thought to be dressed as an [[Omicronians|Omicronian]], despite being an actual member of the species.<br />
<br />
[[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]], dressed as [[Turanga Leela|every nerd's fantasy]], won the costume contest and a small, golden trophy.<br />

The '''Hyper-Chicken''', a simple [[Alien]] from a backwoods asteroid, is the most frequently seen lawyer in ''[[Futurama]]''. He is a father and has often defended and accused members of [[Planet Express crew]]. Despite being incompetent, he often manages to win his cases and if he doesn't, he usually tells his clients to plead insanity. He seems to be a successful lawyer and handles large cases such as the destruction of [[DOOP]]'s headquarters.<br />
<br />
== Defended and Accused ==<br />
=== Defended ===<br />
*[[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]] of spilling [[dark matter]] on [[Pluto]].<br />
*[[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]] and [[Philip J. Fry|Fry]] of robbing a [[Big Apple Bank|bank]] ([[New New York v. Fry and Bender]]).<br />
*[[Farnsworth]] and [[Cubert]] of violating [[Bender]]'s contract of ownership.<br />
<br />
=== Accused ===<br />
*[[Zapp Brannigan]] of blowing up [[DOOP]] [[:File:New Doop.jpg|headquarters]] ([[DOOP v. Zapp]]).<br />
*[[Robot Santa|Santa]] (really [[Bender Bending Rodríguez|Bender]]) of crimes against humanity ([[New New York v. Santa Bender]]).<br />
*[[Dr. John Zoidberg]] of eating the [[Earth]] [[Old Freebie|flag]] ([[Earth v. Zoidberg]]).<br />
<br />
== Production ==<br />
The Hyper-Chicken is modelled on {{w|James Stewart (actor)|Jimmy Stewart's}} Academy Award-nominated portrayal of lawyer Paul Biegler in ''{{w|Anatomy of a Murder}}''. Trying a murder case in a small town, Biegler wins over the sceptical jury by repeatedly comparing himself, "a simple country lawyer", to the high-powered prosecutor, Claude Dancer (George C. Scott). The "simple country lawyer" became a model for many following portrayals, notably the entire show ''{{w|Matlock (TV series)|Matlock}}''.<br />
<br />
It should be noted that another lawyer on the show, [[Old Man Waterfall]], also is modelled on James Stewart.<br />
<br />
== Additional Info ==<br />
=== Trivia ===<br />
*In a [[Deleted scenes#DVD 1 2|deleted scene]], [[Amy Wong|Amy]] once admitted to sleeping with Bender's lawyer. The scene may have been deleted because they remembered that ''this'' is his lawyer.<br /><br />
*The Hyper-Chicken advertises on buses, the ads simply read "ACCIDENTES! (800)λλλ-λλλλ".<br />
*In a [[Deleted scenes#Into the Wild Green Yonder |deleted scene]] on ''[[Into the Wild Green Yonder]]'', [[Zapp Brannigan]] calls him 'Matcluck'.<br />
* He crashed his hover car in "[[Proposition Infinity]]" when he misread Bender's graffiti, his feathers were seen flying from the wreckage. Presumably he was merely badly injured, as he reappears in a crowd scene in "[[The Mutants Are Revolting]]".<br />
*The Hyper-Chicken has two things in common with ''{{w|Looney Tunes}}'' character {{w|Foghorn Leghorn}}: they are both human-sized roosters with southern accents.<br />
*The [[Commentary:Overclockwise|commentary]] for "[[Overclockwise]]" reveals that whenever the staff think they've run out of chicken puns to use for the Hyper-Chicken, the writers manage to come up with more.<br />
