Lena, having been divorced 3 times now, is not a good prospect for a guaranteed marriage. Reid's favorite TV program is the soap opera, The Dangers of Ivan. He sometimes skips work to watch it. At one point, Ivan has a terrible accident while driving, spends 6 years in a coma, and, upon awakening, falls to his death from an open window.

After again lying dormant for four years, Reid Fleming was revived for a Dark Horse Comics one-shot teaming him with Bob Burden's Flaming Carrot.
