Mike Wheeler might not know his way around a guitar but Finn Wolfhard, the actor that brings Mike to life on Stranger Things, does. He’s proved he’s got the chops when he starred in a PUP music video last year, and also whipped out Mac DeMarco co…

Justice for Barb was so 2016—now, it’s all about justice from Barb.
