Yet another "How old are you?" thread

RacerX from Speed Racer but I don't know the band, TinTin I know of the classic comic but not the band. The Thompson Twins and Mott the Hoople I know the bands but not the references.

Duran Duran I was a fan of as a kid and still remember that they stole their name from the Barbarella villain- Durand Durand.

TinTin (Stephen Duffy):


The Thompson Twins (Thompson and Thompson) were the detectives in TinTin.

Mott the Hoople were named for Martha Hoople, a character in the comic strip "Our Boarding House." That's an easy one to miss, especially as the strip originated in the 1920s, though it ran into the '80s.

13,675 for me, putting me at 5th, more than halfway to 6th. Sweet spot, baby!

Aha! I did not remember their names but the image immediately came to mind.
