''[https://web.archive.org/web/20170913083101/http://weirdinacan.tk/ Weird in a Can]'' is a comedy webcomic by some moron calling himself [[Tropers/Dr Furball|Dr Furball]].

It's a tale of three teenage students at [[Academy of Adventure|Mad Science Academy]]. One of them, [[Author Avatar|Dr. George Furball III]] eats a magic lightbulb one day and gets electricity-projecting powers. The other two, Dr. Phillip Pain and Dr. Elizabeth Red do some stuff, too.

It began as an intended graphic novel back in 2005. But four years (and 16 chapters) later, the author decided to redraw the worst of the art, fix the stories and dialogue, reverse the [[Cerebus Syndrome]] and post it on the internet. The first 2 chapters have been uploaded in their entirety (along with a [[Christmas Episode]]), and more should follow.
