Russell Peters
Another weekend, another comic convention for former TV actor Keith Mahar. Most people don't recognize Keith. His only claim to fame was as a child star in an 80's television show. Keith reluctantly joins his close friends, cartoon voice-over actor Matt, comic book artist Allison, and 80's TV star Brock, who are also working the convention, but things take a turn for the worst when Keith's former co-star and Supercon's big ticket draw for the weekend - Adam King - decides to have this group fired and banned from the convention with the help of the convention promoter.
