''Waterworks'' is an InteractiveComic, created by [=LuFa=] as a [[Webcomic/MSPaintAdventures MSPA Forum Adventure]]; apart from normal and animated panels, it also makes use of Flash animations accompanied by music, ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}''-style.
It follows the adventures of Connie Cohen, a "concerned citizen" who arrives at the local waterworks to investigate the mysterious lack of water in her household. As it turns out, the facility has been taken over by a gang of thugs who apparently wish to steal the water for reasons unknown, and it is up to Connie to stop them. And, of course, then it turns out that there is far more at stake than that...
Combat and action abound throughout.
