Hey Tex,
I think it was Spicolli, in his home lesson with the History teacher, who said; "...If they're bogus, then we'll just be bogus, too."
At one of the Straight conventions we got a huge pamphlet with dates and timeline like graphage, actually mapped out, of all the sick fucks who decided that this modality of kickin kids asses was a real money maker.
Its a great map in picture form of all the different team ups and knock offs. Buncha marvel comic evildoers.
It even shows dates of the Miller Newton who was originally a part of Straight and went to open his own deal called KIDS. Yep.
I thought there were only a couple of knock offs. When you see it you'll be alearned bettah.
Its running around in here on this site somewhere isn't it?

Look around.
