"Real life references"

[edit]

Given that "the World of Tomorrow" was used at least as early as the 1939 World's Fair, are we SURE that this is a reference to Futurama? --Khajidha (talk) 12:09, 7 October 2014 (EDT)

With a character coming out of stasis after a prolonged period to find the world changed around him? I can't imagine it's not. - Chris McFeely (talk) 12:40, 7 October 2014 (EDT)
Yeah, I'm not sure the 1939 World's Fair has much to do with the contents of this issue. --ItsWalky (talk) 13:10, 7 October 2014 (EDT)
Aside from being the inspiration for that bit from Futurama. --Khajidha (talk) 13:14, 7 October 2014 (EDT)
So what you're saying is that in this issue's title John Barber is referencing the 1939 World's Fair. --ItsWalky (talk) 14:11, 7 October 2014 (EDT)
