Universe 01

Universe 01 is the reality in which the comics "Shrimp Fried Riot' and "My Own Personal Apocalypse" take place. Populated for the most part by small, chibi-fied people and photoshopped photographic backgrounds. Sometimes, the backgrounds are represented by solid-colored silhouettes of famous skylines - most notably downtown Seattle, featuring the Space Needle.

First seen in the Shrimp Fried Riot comic, Universe 01's version of Bellingham, Washington was the home of protagonist Octavius Xailenrath and his friends. When that comic became "My Own Personal Apocalypse", the setting moved to Seattle, Washington.

The most recent visit sees the locale as still being Seattle, only a '20 minutes into the future' version that is, in actuality, at least 17 years into the future, as Shrimp Fried Riot; The Next Generation takes place there, and its protagonist is Octavius "Ozzie" Xailenrath, Jr.
