… and later the same year Daryl Hall, John Oates and Frankensteins Monster started a not very sucessfull supergroup.
I thought “Hall and Oates Meet Frankenstein” would be a ripoff of “Abbott and Costello Meet the Mummy.”
Instead it’s a ripoff of all Bolling’s previous Frankenstein comix.
So still funny.
They are actually Bolling’s previous Frankenstein’s monster comix
Well played sir, well played.
Hold up. There’s obviously some PR effort being run by their agent because this is the third reference to Hall & Oates that I’ve encountered this week.
Haulin’ Oats? Is that a euphemism, or the sign on a truck in the FREEEEEEEEEEE-DUM Convoy?
So what’s a “TEU”? I’ve not heard that term before, and Google isn’t helping.
Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit
A TEU or Twenty-foot Equivalent Unit is an exact unit of measurement used to determine cargo capacity for container ships and terminals.
This measurement is derived from the dimensions of a 20ft standardized shipping container. Because standard containers can be 20 or 40ft in length the capacity of a container ship can depend on the ratio of the two sizes.
In order to avoid confusion and standardize a ship’s capacity, the number of containers a ship can load is translated into a number of 20ft containers and that measurement is known as TEU. For example, one forty foot container is two TEUs.

Edit: Just curious, what did you try on google? for me, searching teu had the correct wikipedia link as the top result.
