Recently I had to take a business trip and on my return flight I ended up completing some of my comics while I was on the flight (Comics at 35,000ft) Now after this experience I got to thinking and I have a question to put to all of you:

What is the the weirdest/funniest/strangest place you have ever done one of your comics at?

Cambridge.

What? That is a weird, funny and strange place...

Sitting at my desk, using my lightbox.

No, it's not very weird, but I don't think I've done a comic anywhere else, so... *shrug*

Atop the overpass by my dad's house at three o'clock in the morning. Surprisingly bright street lights up there.

A friend's condo in Acapulco, while being completely drunk and a friend was in deep angst at just being dumped by his girl.

That was a long ago and it was not my current comic, but something else.

Once i made a whole page during the night at the Chennai Airport, in India.
I had no desk or table, so i ended up drawing on the bench and sitting on my own backpack. It was quite uncomfortable, but since i had nothing to read, the only alternatives were playing tetris on my cellphone all the time, or die out of boredom.

Then, i've been comicking so many times in my past work place. I know i wasn't supposed to do that, but, hey, they can't expect me to stare unblinkingly at the security screens all the time. Besides, the boss knew that, and never bothered me.

I also did on a flying plane a few times (don't worry, i was a passenger), but the last time, the plane met this big turbolence, and it made me screw up all the work.

On the blackboard in the classroom with two dozen nine and ten year olds watching.

EDIT: Dunno how this happened...but I've been posted before Grace, and she was already up when I read the thread...

Ooh...looks like the forums occasionally get tricked by we Australians posting now during your tomorrow!

I just don't draw in odd places.

I did one in a lecture once, but I had to redo it at home because I haven't got a scanner.

I did one at a recording studio, I do some in bed sometimes.
Ive done some story boards and layouts while riding the express train to work, and sometimes in the bathroom (can't let having to go to the bathroom derail one's train of thought).

Disney World, on Space Mountain.

(Okay, not really.)

Grandmother's house in New Hampshire

(It's weirder when you stop to think what our comic is about...)

Jim North · Post by **Jim North** » Sat Nov 06, 2004 6:49 pm

I've never done my comic up in an odd place, but I did finish up a short story I was working on a long time ago while making a five to ten mile walk from one of my friend's house to his girlfriend's house. My right hand was gashed open for most of the trip, too, from slipping while climbing over a fence.

nudist resort!

(well, it was writing more than drawing... but that counts doesn't it?)

I-70, between Columbus and Cleveland ...

Some hotel near Disney World ...

A plane between Salt Lake City and St. Louis ...

Cafeterias ...

And a lot of 'em during classes, tests, dinner, and who knows what else.

i have four places: by a stream on campus, at the computer desk, at work, and in class.
the stream is the best place if it's a nice day out.

The scribbly chibi in the top right was done on I-70 in my car on my way to meet the other Keenspacers at the cookout. Yes. I was driving. No. Nobody died.

Many of the recent pages were done in the Columbia mall between 6 and closing.
