The Story

First Version

Invader X, the supervillain.

A spaceship shoots Erth five times, causing it to explode. After seeing it destroyed, an alien reptile says he is conquering the planet, which actually doesn't make much sense. Comic Leela interrupts him, calling him Invader X, and announces Delivery-Boy Man. The superhero fires lasers from his eyes with the laser eye power, blasting the spaceship that destroyed Erth. He then uses the hand magnet power to get the supervillain's gun and unbuckle Comic Leela. Invader X asks him to stop, but Delivery-Boy Man decides to save her love once and for all by reversing time. His actions manage to bring back the lasers the spaceship fired at Earth. Consequent and strangely, these lasers blow it up. Later, while having a meal with Comic Leela, Delivery-Boy Man says that everything is alright... and they kiss. The next panel shows the credits: the comic book was "written and inked by Fry!!!"

This first version has 9 panels.

Second Version

Delivery-Boy Man, the superhero.

Comic Leela has apparently been constructively criticising Invader X, and he seems to be getting fed up with it. As a result, he is going to shoot her... if Delivery-Boy Man takes one more step, that is. Unfortunately, as in this version he has no ridiculous powers, there's nothing useful he can do. With nothing on his way, Invader X shoots and disintegrates Comic Leela. After she dies, Delivery-Boy Man starts crying.

This second version has 5 panels.

Third Version

Comic Leela, the buckled lady.

Invader X is going to shoot Comic Leela in her forehead. However, Delivery-Boy Man jumps in front of the X death ray. Sadly, he does it too soon. The alien reptile hasn't shot yet. The superhero is defenseless. Luckily, he has recurred to his metiowishing power to telepatically make a meteorite break in the room and fall over Invader X. Nearing his death, the supervillain screams. Comic Leela says her hero had saved her by random chance, but he reveals to her what really happened, and they kiss.

This third version has 6 panels.

Reception

  • Fry thinks it's wonderful.
  • Leela said the hero in the first version has too many powers.
  • Leela said she doesn't care about the hero because all he does is cry. Interestingly, this reaction made Fry cry too.
  • Leela said the ending of the thid version is good, but not great.
  • Bender didn't like the first version.
  • Sergio Aragonés' head said the first version stinks.

Quotes

    Invader X: Stop it, you hero!

    Delivery-Boy Man: Oh, yeah? I may be just a simple delivery boy with no superpowers, so there's nothing I can do.

    Comic Leela: Oh, Delivery-Boy Man! You saved me by random chance.

Goofs

  • If time really had been reversed, the lasers the spaceship fires at Earth shouldn't have been fired at itself. However, this is probably an intentional goof, as Fry is not a professional writer, or, for that matter, a very smart person.
