New story.
"SMOOCH" is a parody reference to the rock band KISS. "Johnny B. Badd" is a parody reference to the 1958 rock-and-roll song "Johnny B. Goode" by Chuck Berry.
The names of some of the members of SMOOCH are also parody tributes to the members of KISS: "Deuce" = Ace Frehley, and "Chris" = Peter Criss.
