''[[Heart Ofof Thethe City]]'' is a comic strip that has been running in newspapers since 1998. Created by Mark Tatulli, who also writes and draws the macabre ''[[Lio]]'', it focuses on Heart Lamarr, a [[Genki Girl|high energy]] elementaryjunior-highschool schoolgirlgirl wannabe-actress in [[Useful Notes/Philadelphia (useful notes)|Philadelphia]]; her [[Proud to Be Aa Geek|proudly geeky]] best friend Dean, and her frequently overwhelmed single mother.
 
Christina ‘Steenz’ Stewart took over the strip in April 2020.
