Take a peek into the Edison Lee Studio

by John Hambrock

Back in January, King Features’ amazing Countess Tea posted a blog featuring the studios of some of the King cartoonists. comicskingdom.com/blog/2014/01/15/ask-a-cartoonist-caution-creators-at-work Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get my act together in time to submit photos of mine. Well, it’s been six months, and I’ve finally managed to round up a few shots.

We moved into my current studio 3 years ago. Our office at that time was nice, but it was more space than we needed (some of you may have seen images of it on my Cartoonist Studio page), so, we moved to this cozy Harborside space. It sits above the harbor overlooking Lake Michigan, and is close to some of the best restaurants in the area. Best of all, it’s quiet. Guests are always welcome, so if you’re a local, or just passing through, give us a call and be sure to stop by.

Misc. Edison props

An Edison “Price is Right” strip, signed by host Drew Carey and announcer George Gray, and a “NOVA Science Now” strip signed by David Pogue. I sometimes put celebrities in my comics, and I’m flattered when they write to tell me they like the strip.
