He was however in Bob wherein Bob Newhart plays a comicbook artist/writer

One last hint: Who played Bob’s best friend – also known as “The Peeper” – who was a Vermont native, and who loved to pour maple syrup over everything?

50

ok - that’s one on me - Tom Poston was in all 3 of Bob’s series

Yes. From memory, so probably not verbatim, but close:

“I did say the darnedest things. I was ahead of my time. Today I’d get applause with a word like ‘poo-poo.’”

Moon Mullens was a comic strip from the 30’s or 40’s (either way BMT)

55

Ah. Thanks.

“Moon Mullins” was a popular comic strip from the 30’s to the 60’s–Bob tried to tell Emily he was a fan of that strip (she didn’t believe him, of course).
