However, a [[Jenny Everywhere#Helping other Jennies|different Jenny]] had only subconscious knowledge of the seaside city when she was sent there by [[Cha Ni]] to help prevent a disastrous fire. She did her best to stay beneath the notice of the locals and especially of the local Jenny's friends, believing that due to the low level of supernatural activity of the place, the sight of several Jennies at once would only serve to raise inconvenient questions from onlookers, creating trouble for her local self.

The city of Right-On By The Sea is a thinly disguised Brighton, as readers might guess from the name. Since artist [[Nelson Evergreen]] was living in Brighton at the time, he had every opportunity to draw the city as he saw it. | The city of Right-On By The Sea is a thinly disguised [[Brighton]], as readers might guess from the name.

In ''[[Name's Not Down (comic story)|Name's Not Down]]'', we see in the very first panel of the very first Jenny Everywhere comic an aerial view of a seashore with a fun pier (as seen at the top of this page). In our world this is known as Palace Pier, a landmark of the city and popular tourist attraction. | In [[COMIC]]: ''[[Name's Not Down (comic story)|Name's Not Down]]'', we see in the very first panel of the very first Jenny Everywhere comic an aerial view of a seashore with a fun pier (as seen at the top of this page).

''[[Damn Fine Hostile Takeover (comic story)|Damn Fine Hostile Takeover]]'' opens on the beach and the stairs and arches seen at the bottom of page three match Brighton styles, particularly the stairs near Brighton Music Hall (700 meters west of the pier). Also, if one looks closely at the record on page two, the fourth-wall breaking label notes that it was "Recorded in London and Brighton, England." | [[COMIC]]: ''[[Damn Fine Hostile Takeover (comic story)|Damn Fine Hostile Takeover]]'' opens on the beach and the stairs and arches seen at the bottom of page three match Brighton styles, particularly the stairs near Brighton Music Hall (700 meters west of the pier).

Most obvious is the train station at the end of the story, which on page 19 is seen clearly from a viewpoint near the junction of Terminus Road and Howard Place. The interior view is also consistent with the building in our reality. | Most obvious is the train station at the end of the story, which on page 19 is seen clearly from a viewpoint near the junction of Terminus Road and Howard Place.

On page 20 we see the crew emerging into the rain, coming out from the entrances at Terminus Road and Trafalger Street. Jenny and Clea are last seen in frame three, rounding the corner to walk east and go through the Trafalger Street underpass; they are being watched from across the street by Jenny Nowhere. The story ends with a full height panel of Nowhere, with a moderately inaccurate view up Guildford Lane in the background. | On page 20 we see the crew emerging into the rain, coming out from the entrances at Terminus Road and Trafalger Street.

[[COMIC]]: ''[[The Legend of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Legend of Jenny Everywhere]]'' showed a version of Jenny hanging out in a version of Brighton outright, and [[COMIC]]: ''[[The Freak Issue (comic story)|The Freak Issue]]'' took place in an unnamed seaside city with a pier — both likely alluding to Right-On. | |||
