The Buckets is a comic strip originally created by Scott Stantis.
The two sons in the strip, Toby and Eddie, began as younger characters.
Francis Denver "Bronco" Bucket - Larry's father, and grandfather to Toby and Eddie.
He's your typical crotchety old man - rough to his adult kids, and friends, but usually soft and gentle to his grandsons.
Sarah Bucket (née Smyrna) - The mother of the house.
When the strip started, he was still in diapers, but was brought up to age 6 for comedic purposes.
And there is Dogzilla, the pet, that most closely resembles and is referred to being a dog.
