Creator Tak Bui created PC and Pixel, a comic strip that cutely reflects today’s digital age amid a mid-life crisis, with societal snapshots inserted among the daily storylines. PC Odata achieved middle age only to be "downsized" out of his job and his marriage. Like so many cast out by today's economy, he becomes a free-lance consultant with an office at home. 
He is available for hire by any PR firm, because advertising is what he used to do, but will accept almost any kind of work to make ends meet. PC is wired, but with technology always changing, is never quite as comfortable surfing the Net as his cat Pixel.
An addicted Netsurfer who is never without her laptop. Pixel has a secret friend Digit, a mouse who hangs around PC's apartment and likes to dispense advice over the Internet. There is also Leo, a neighborhood kid who is also an inventor and Maxine, PC's love interest who dislikes computers. Also Virus the VW Bug.
