And, as I posted on January 12 (when the name “Agent Boche” first entered the storyline), “xylophone” was referring to “xylon” just as “beach” was for “Boche”.
There was a Barney who was frequently a guest star (as a bar patron) on “All in the Family” and was then a regular in its spinoff “Archie Bunker’s Place”.
As has previously been mentioned, Totten Sr apparently doesn’t know of Junior’s dishonorable discharge from the military. And apparently Senior and Junior are all that are left of the Tottens, until an inevitable and heretofore unknown relative seeking revenge shows up in a few years!
Yes, that was later, after Byrne left to help reboot Superman. Ironically, Ben Grimm (the Thing) first encountered Sharon Ventura (later known as She-Thing) during his leave of absence from the FF.
With two men and two women, this would be more like late in John Byrne’s run on the FF comic in the 1980’s, when She-Hulk replaced the Thing, who in the storyline had taken an extended leave of absence.
Right…90+14!
