"Lex and Lucy, simultaneously: All right, intruder, what are you doing in my house? YOUR house? This is MY house! Stop doing that! Stop doing what? ARGH!"
Written and drawn by Iambic, a devoted Troper, Fall City Blues
follows the chaos when Lex and Lucy, alternate universe versions of each other, get stuck sharing an apartment after their two realities are merged to save space. Add a rock-eating alien chick, a bunch of terrible puns, and a helping of mad science, and you've got the general drift.
