It focuses on a teen boy named Milo (Anton Starkman), who works part-time at the comic store Warped!. His life is drastically changed when his boss hires him a co-worker: the excessively excitable but smart Ruby (Kate Godfrey), and the two must work together as teammates to keep the store in ship-shape. Joining them for the ride is Milo's role-playing friend Darby (Ariana Molkara), and Hurley (Christopher Martinez), who runs the upstairs pizzeria.
The series is the third spinoff from the 2019 All That revival to feature a cast member and 9th spinoff overall.
