''[[http://www.jellybeansniper.net/spacebetween/ The Space Between]]'' is a SliceOfLife webcomic written by Shane [=McCarthy=] since November 2009. Publishing Monday and Friday, it is about the antics of a group of young adults, with the first chapter framed as an extended {{flashback}} from the perspective of the main character.

The very first comic page shows the main character, Jack, apparently homeless and reminiscing about HowWeGotHere. Cut back to three years ago, when Jack is an aspiring sports journalist who works at a restaurant and is looking for a new roommate to help pay the bills. He hangs out constantly with his childhood friend, Samantha ("Sam"), although both insist that they are JustFriends. Sam works at a record store and is a [[GoodBadGirl hard partier]]. Frank is a geeky freelance web designer and med student who answers Jack's ad for a roommate. He finds himself a bit overwhelmed by Sam's outgoing personality.

Jack and Sam throw a party to welcome their new roommate, and Sam brings along C.J., the new girl at the record store. HilarityEnsues.

The comic is still brand new, so much of the plot remains to be determined. It may be slightly {{NSFW}}.
