Hissko

Hissko is a fictional species from the animated television series Futurama. They are reptilian humanoids with a distinctive sibilant speech pattern. Hisskos are known for their calm and intelligent demeanor, often acting as diplomats, scholars, or scientists within the series' universe. Their physical appearance includes scales, slitted pupils, and a forked tongue, all contributing to their reptilian nature.

The species is depicted as being technologically advanced and generally peaceful, although they can be fierce when provoked. Hisskos are often portrayed as being more rational and less prone to emotional outbursts than some of the other alien species in Futurama. Their societal structure is not extensively detailed, but they appear to have a well-organized civilization with a strong emphasis on logic and knowledge.

One notable Hissko character is the Professor's former colleague, Professor Wernstrom, who is often seen in a professional capacity, providing scientific insights or technical assistance. The Hissko home planet is rarely shown, but their presence is felt through their contributions to interstellar relations and scientific endeavors across the galaxy. Their unique vocalizations, characterized by a prominent "s" sound in their speech, are a recurring element in their portrayal.
