Fullerton is a fictional industrial city in an (at current) unnamed country in the Southern Hemisphere. Unlike most cities where tall skyscrapers dominate the skyline, Fullerton's skyline is dominated by chimneys, cooling towers, and other tall industrial buildings such as silos and storage tanks. Among other things; large cranes also dominate the coastal skyline. This comic shows the everyday life of a group of friends living in this mighty city.
