"And remember, always wear your seatbelt!"

- TheOdd1sOut's outro

Robert James Rallison (born May 14, 1996), better known online as TheOdd1sOut, and formerly known as TheOdd1sOut Comic is an American YouTube cartoonist based in Arizona and is best known for his comic series and his YouTube channel of the same name. As a member of the Animation Squad, he sometimes works with his YouTube animator friends such as TimTom, Jaiden Animations, and SomeThingElseYT, appearing in their videos and vice-versa. James frequently collaborates in smaller YouTubers' videos, sometimes even YouTubers bigger than him, which grows both their audience by thousands. TheOdd1sOut currently has 9.1 million subscribers and 1.5 billion video views.

James will also post speed drawings for the comics he posts on Tumblr, Twitter, Tapastic, Facebook, and iFunny, as well as his own website. In these videos, he shows the process of a comic's creation, and he rambles about the recent events going on in his life.

He also recently published a book titled, "How to be Cool and Other Things I Definitely Learned from Growing Up"

Webcomics
Rallison uploaded the first strip of his webcomic TheOdd1sOut on June 14, 2012 on Tumblr and later on iFunny.undefinedThroughout his first year of making comics, he played with his style a lot before settling on his current bubble style.undefinedHe still posts webcomics, though a lot less frequently than he used to due to most of his time being occupied by YouTube.

James is part of the recently created comic creator group known as "Orgy" or "OfficialOrgy". The group is made up of iFunny and Tumblr comic makers and animators Doggybag, Deezeewy/DizzyComic, Chez, Free/Funtime, 8BitLiam, ForceAnimations, Blumod, and CowardlyComics. They take a question prompt (for example: "what shouldn't you say at a job interview?") and each give their humorous response. These collaborations are made every few weeks and posted by a different member each time.

YouTube
On August 30, 2014, about two years after he started making his webcomics, Rallison decided to start making YouTube videos. He called it, "theodd1sout comic", and uploaded a video about a book he had made in elementary school on the same day, titled "A Book I Made as a kid". After a few years of steady growth, in April 2016, his channel gained over 278,000 subscribers, giving him a total of over 400,000 subscribers as of that May.

James' most popular video to used to be his 'Work Stories (sooubway)' video about his work at fast-food chain Subway (known as 'Sooubway' in his videos, possibly to avoid copyright claims), gaining over 30 million views. His videos about working at Subway have also been featured on Foodbeast. The website's writer Peter Pham has called the videos "amazing" and "hilarious". His current most popular video is 'Life is Fun', which is a song with boyinaband about problems with the US and the world. It has over 38 million views.
