Summary

When a rare first issue of the Electric Man comic book mysteriously appears in Jazz and Wolf's comic book shop, it seems their financial problems are solved. However, the pricey comic is sought by a number of people who'll stop at nothing to get it for themselves, including the strange and alluring Lauren McCall, comic-nerd Edison Bolt and Lauren's Uncle Jimmy, a violent thug. This inventive and hilarious comedy whodunit blends the mystery of The Maltese Falcon with the geekiness of Clerks.
