Mad Scientists rule the world. Badly.
Girl Genius is a Web Comic (originally a print series) by Phil and Kaja Foglio, which has become one of the classics of the Steampunk (called Gaslamp Fantasy by the creators) genre.
The title character of the story is Miss Agatha Clay ( Heterodyne), who begins as a young apprentice to a type of Mad Scientist known to the world as a "Spark". Her adventures span almost 15 volumes so far.
