Strange Luck was a large Domino archive during the height of the X-Men fandom, part of the Alternate Timelines archive group that included a number of other archives, including Partners, a Domino and Cable archive. It was founded and maintained by Alicia McKenzie, known for her Cable fanfic and bringing him and his associated characters to prominence during the late 1990s-early 2000s.

The archive was created sometime in 2001, with the first update notification in December 2001. It hosted not only Alicia's own fanfic but a number of other authors, by invitation only. By the time Alternate Timelines merged with the Itty Bitty Archives and became comicfic.net in 2004, Strange Luck hosted 51 stories by 26 authors.
