Mason Williams (otherwise known as Tailsteak) is the cartoonist who creates 1/0. 1/0 is a serial strip that follows the lives of the denizens of the comic. They are self-aware of their situation, knowing that Tailsteak created them and the comic from nothing, and as the creator/cartoonist, he has the power to be omnipresent. Each of the characters has their own personality, but they derive that personality from Tailsteak himself, as he writes their dialogue, but the thoughts and decisions are their own. Tailsteak draws each of them, and when they aren't focused, they technically don't exist, but can still do things off panel. Originally, the main character was a man by the name of Barnacle Jones, a character from the comic, Absolute Tripe. Through the process of losing characters to battles with other webcomics, losing characters through thought bubbles, and the creation and destruction of other characters, the cast has settled to as follows: Junior, a former living eye with fangs, now a ghost with telekinetic abilities; Ghanny, a former living molecule, also a ghost; Mock, formerly a golem that thought he was Tailsteak, now a shapeshifting ghost; Zadok, a woven golem made from native grass; the running gag, the actual word gag that runs around shouting catchphrases; Marcus, a living molecule; Terra, formerly a bear's tapeworm, now an anthropomorphic (animals that are attributed human-like qualities) earthworm; and finally, Petitus, a golem created from mud and rocks. The group currently knows that Tailsteak will finish the strip at the 1000 mark, which leaves them with less than 50 to go. This raises the problem of deciding what to do with their time left, and the question of what happens to them when the strip is over.

He finds that the other people who populate the apartment are a little strange, and it is almost too much for him to bear, save for when he meets the new tenant, Amelia Dickens. Amelia is a struggling actress looking for that one big break where she can show her acting skills to their fullest extent and not have to rely on her looks as the sole determiner for what jobs she gets. Unfortunately for Dean, Amelia is already attached, and Dean can only watch from afar. Dean usually confides in Bennett, a technical genius and computer guru of the apartment. While he can wire up the apartment for virtual reality, there is only so much he can do to help Dean’s romantic troubles, after all, he has to deal with the apartment’s resident evil genius, Raven Lunatique. Raven seeks to become powerful enough to control the dark arts and eventually the world itself. He could potentially do such, if Jin (representative artist character who lives in the basement) and Cory (representative writer character who lives in the attic and is a speaking monkey) didn’t thwart his schemes time and time again.

It seems that every night, Bernard changes into a werewolf, not remembering the night before, or even that he is a werewolf, he wakes up in odd places, wondering how he got there. When he starts waking up in strange guy's beds, that's when he starts getting paranoid. Bernard is heterosexual, but his werewolf form (named Buster), Bernard, is openly gay, and there is nothing he likes better than hitting the clubs and partying. Bernard has to work with the issues of being a werewolf and denies the idea that he might be gay, so he usually just storms off muttering to himself. Buster doesn't have the usual murderous rages that plague the typical mythic werewolves. In fact, he is not bound by the lunar cycles, changing each night into a werewolf! Buster's friends feel that perhaps this because Bernard is denying a fundamental part of himself, this is probably why Buster is so rambunctious and ends up wanting to drink in everything that life has to offer. Now if only they can convince Bernard of that!
