Almost Heroes
When slick Harvard Business School graduate Terry returns home for his father's funeral, he expects a quick trip. Instead, he discovers the family's comic book store, The Silver Salmon, is on the brink of bankruptcy. He is forced to stick around and work alongside his head-in-the-clouds, pop-culture-obsessed brother Peter to save the business and mend their fractured relationship.
