From Walkypedia!
Walkyverse is the fan-invented name for the main universe in which the works of David Willis take place, from Roomies! to Joyce and Walky! for in between. Whilst is different from the real Earth, with Aliens, Martians and omnipotent cheeseheads, it also features a few familiar faces in the background. It also features several characters from other comics.

Roomies!
See Also Roomies!
The first major comic to take place in the Walkyverse, it introduces Joe, Danny, Joyce, Sal, Ruth, Billie, and Howard. We are also introduced to key concepts of It's Walky, including the Aliens, Head Alien, SEMME, Walky, Jason and Squadron 128.
Roomies! returned briefly when Walky went in search of Joyce's past and visited Joe and Danny, establishing his former relationship with Billie. There were also short stories about Ruth and Howard, and a brief run of Roomies Redux! comics set in 1997 that ran in newspapers and on the web after It's Walky! finished for a few months.

Taking over straight after the end of Roomies!, It's Walky expanded the Aliens amongst theme with the Head Alien trying time and again to conquer Earth. Over time the mechanics of the Walkyverse were more fully developed, with visitors from another universe being revealed as the main villains of the piece. In the final conclusion, SEMME is shut down and the abductees must defeat an invasion of JFO and Martians.
It's Walky returned briefly in the form of It's Walky $100 Theatre, as Jason and other former SEMME agents fought with Monkey Master and the Electric Man. Here, we were introduced to Head Alien-II and Machete.
Shortpacked!

Originally a small gag-a-month comic that David Willis drew on the side, after the end of It's Walky! he rebooted the archives and began to make it more story-driven. It introduced Ethan, Amber, Ninja Rick, and Ronald Reagan as employees at Shortpacked!, a store run by Galasso with plans for global conquest. Joining the cast from It's Walky are Robin and the oddly-living Mike. So far it has been revealed that Ethan is gay, surprising even him, and that a second Eaton will come again to reunite Toys 'R Us and Shortpacked! under one store.
Joyce and Walky!
See Also Joyce and Walky!
After the conclusion of It's Walky!, Joyce and Walky! followed their adventures as civilians, and with having Sal as a roommate after she was dumped by Jason. A pay-to-view comic, it currently costs $2 a month, including future months and previous months, though free comics still appear on the main site every Saturday.

Melonpool
A science-fiction comic written and drawn by Steve Troop, it crossed over with It's Walky! several times during its run. The cast of Melonpool carry out their adventures in the Walkyverse for the most part, although it is likely known to them as the Melonpoolverse. Over the comics' run various time travel stories have occurred and various alien foes have been fought, including the enigmatic G.R.A.I.S.E. and the Aliens.
Fans!
Fans! features the adventures of a science-fiction in a universe alternate to that of the Walkyverse where they battle against various evil foes. The Fans! cast briefly visited the Walkyverse after too much time travel and magic. They were later returned to their universe with the help of Mist. It is thought that there is no way for them to return, thanks to The Cheese.
The Fans! home universe must also be part of the multi-verse that makes up the Walkyverse - as evidenced by an alternate Shawna and placerholder living in the main Walkyverse.
Written by T Campbell, Fans! is drawn by Jason Waltrip and a plethora of other artists, including David Willis himself.
Rip and Teri
A short espionage webcomic written by T Campbell, drawn by John Waltrip and colored by David Willis. Rip and Teri were cameoed in a Shortpacked! gag comic.
