Held in stasis for some time until one of the enchanters revives himself and begins to tell the tale of their first assignment at a high school. Their job was to track down other enchanted people who are making students disappear. Everyone on the team is overtly gay, and look like they belong to a 1980’s big hair metal band. Of course they all play in a team band of sorts so it all makes a sense. The first issue ends with a classic face off between the Enchanters and a group of bag guys named "Death Etiquette". Presumably this indicates that a fight will commence in the following issue.

Like an Archie comic crossed with a humor and action Manga comic, Ronson Butler brings us the first issue of "Indavally High" where a 6 foot 3 inch tall Rita Ortega battles for the heart and affection of James Wright.

Talk about a challenge for poor Rita. To make matters worse, James doesn’t seem to quite comprehend that he has this effect on the opposite sex. So naturally when James takes care of an injured female Octopus a strong bond forms between them. For Rita this won’t be tolerated.

This is a CD Rom comic with the pages delivered in the Adobe PDF file format. Normally this series is done as a photocopied digest comic, but this time, due to high cost and a desire to experiment with color, issue #3 was done as a CD. Color is used in a minimalist fashion, and the strips are still the odd mix of zine style surrealism, and slice of life.
