[[In a World]] where the Industrial Revolution has turned into all-out war, Mad Scientists rule the world. Badly.
'''''Girl Genius''''' is a [[Web Comic]] that was originally a print series, and is authored by [[Phil Foglio|Phil]] and [[Kaja Foglio]]. It first began in November 2002, [[Webcomics Long Runners|was still running as of August 2021]], and has become one of the classics of the [[Steampunk]] genre, though the comic is called [[Insistent Terminology|Gaslamp]] [[Gaslamp Fantasy|Fantasy]] by the creators.
The title character of the story is Miss Agatha Clay ({{spoiler|Heterodyne}}), who begins as a young apprentice to a type of [[Mad Scientist]] known to the world as a "Spark". Her adventures span over 16 volumes so far. There are also novelizations of the comic's first two major arcs, called ''[[Agatha H and The Airship City]]'' and ''[[Agatha H and The Clockwork Princess]]'' respectively. A ''[[GURPS]]'' adaptation has been licensed, but seems to have descended into [[Development Hell]] - that book hasn't even been outlined as of November 2016, let alone written.
