Steve is a little blue fellow making his way through two overlapping worlds. One world consists of his office job, his apartment and the other drole realities of the town where he lives. The second, more colorful world is one in which Steve (and often those around him) are wisked away to outlandish circumstances in foreign lands, historical moments and far away planets. It is in this other world where he finds himself confronted by robot telemarketers, movie screen monsters and credit-card-pushing demons. The transition between the realities is a fluid one, and frequently elements of one world are dragged into the other.

Where many of us have "I ought to" moments, Steve actually lives out his impulses. Such episodes include going off to live on a tropical island or visiting his credit card company to give them what-for. These actualized fantasies are usually marked with unforeseen flaws which frustrate Steve's particular agenda.

Steve is the ultimate gullible consumer. He is sold by even the weakest sales pitch or advertisement. Consequently he finds himself in an ongoing, losing battle to curb his spending and reign in his credit card debt.
