One version of Jenny Everywhere once spent some time with a Belgian “reporter kid” with a “goofy cowlick”. She described him as “interesting to talk to, always running around doing stuff, a lot of fun to be around… Really cute, too”. Jenny developed a crush on him and tried to make it known to him, but eventually realised that he was “completely clueless about women” and that he not only did not reciprocate her feelings, but had remained entirely oblivious. (PROSE: Misunderstandings)
Behind the scenes
The character is evidently meant to be Tintin, the eminently copyrighted protagonist of Hergé's 20th century comic series The Adventures of Tintin and its various adaptions and spin-offs. The apparent sexlessness of the character, who does not display encounters romantic or sexual interest of any kind at any point in the course of Hergé's canonical works, has been the subject of much critical attention.
In the real world, Tintin was used as a point of comparison for Jenny Everywhere herself when the character concept was first unveiled on the Barbelith forum, with Jenny being described as “like if Tintin listened to Le Tigre and joined the Fantastic Four” by Steven Wintle.
