Two enterprising friends attempt to keep their failing comic shop afloat as sales slump, interpersonal relationships wither, employees smoke pot in the back room, customers are berated, and starving artists begin to drop like flies in an independent workplace comedy shot on location at Charlie's Comic Book Store in Tucson, Arizona. John and Pete both have a lifelong passion for comic books, but reading a comic and running a successful business are two entirely different endeavors. As the favorite hobby of the friends and business partners slowly succumbs to the corrosive effects of commercialism, the struggle to keep their shop in business in a world of dead broke rack browsers becomes an uphill battle on a formidably steep incline.
