   Summary

   When Will Byers moves back to Hawkins, he and Mike Wheeler pretend they're strangers. With Will's artistry and Mike's writing. They are assigned a comic that needs to be finished by the end of the year; if it's not, then both of them get a fail. Will can't stand Mike's personality, and Mike can't stand Will's constant goody two-shoes act. Will they learn to work together? Or will old tensions flare?
