Infinity Apartment was a Jenny Everywhere webcomic created by Benj Christensen.

Contents

Plot

Strip 1: Jenny

Jenny Everywhere has a break-up conversation with a Robot she'd been dating, who has recently gotten a personality update and come to the conclusion that their personalities are no longer compatible. Jenny is upset with the robot, not because of the break-up itself, but because the robot began the conversation with such a dull cliché as “Jenny, we need to talk”.

Strip 2: Ezri

Ezri, another resident of the Infinity Apartment, holds an inner monologue seemingly full of philosophical insights about ups and downs in life, though it turns out this is all prompted by the fact that she is in fact bouncing on a trampoline.

Strip 3: Keith

Keith refuses to believe that Jenny's apzrtment exists in several realities at once. To prove that they are in a different reality than his own, Jenny opens the door onto a world where a Dragon door-to-door preacher is trying to have a word with Jenny.

Strip 4: Thuban

In honour of Star Wars Shortened, Thuban proposes a stunt of summarising the entire Star Wars series in six comic panels. Unfortunately, as Jenny is quick to point out, he wastes increasing amounts of panels first introducing the gimmick, then discussing its possibility with Jenny, and ends up having to boil everything down to a single comic panel with the caption “Stuff happened”.

Strip 5: ShatterScreen

Waking up in the morning, Jenny is startled by ShatterScreen, a green-clad superhero, who explains that he is “the superhero movie [she] ordered from Webfilms”, as well as by Ezri, who pops out of a waste bin to introduce herself to Jenny as her new flatmate.

Strip 6: Possibilities

Keith sees Jenny listening at one of the doors of the Apartment, an “unclaimed” one marked TBA. She explains that until someone wanting to become her flatmate claims this room, making it turn into a slice of their original reality, they remain filled with “what could have been and what might still be”.

Strip 7: Something New?

Jenny and ShatterScreen notice that everything around them has suddenly changed appearance. ShatterScreen wonders if one of his enemies has used an Abstraction Ray, but Jenny concludes that in all likelihood “the creator just went crazy again trying to settle on an art-style”.

Worldbuilding

Jenny

  • This story features a Jenny of variable appearance who is a resident of the Infinity Apartment. It is unclear if she has the ability to change her appearance, or if she is one consciousness who frequently trades bodies with other Jennies.
    • She is first seen in Strip #1 wearing green overalls and a short-sleeved periwinkle T-shirt, as well as a beige scarf and gray-blue goggles. She has pale skin and her hair is short and dark, with two short pigtails in the back.
    • In Strip #3, she has longer, mauve hair, a dark green T-shirt illustrated with an emoji version of herself, and wears a very light green scarf. Her skin is pale and her goggles are blueish glass with a brown leather strap.
    • In Strip #4, she's black, with a large Afro; her scarf is a pale gray and very long, her goggles are a futuristic visor, and she wears cream-coloured clothing with metal shoulder pads.
    • In Strip #5, she's a fit, tall woman with long blonde hair, wearing a lime-green top, mauve trousers and crimson scarf.
    • In Strip #6, she has very short brown hair and wears a khaki vest and a long, blue-grey scarf. Inside the “unclaimed rooms”, the shifting possibilities include a ginger-haired Jenny with a minimalistic, strap-less pair of sky-blue goggles, and a Jenny with a long beige scarf and vividly red hair done up in short ponytails.
    • In Strip #7, she has long, dark brown hair, a sleeveless beige T-shirt and a gray scarf.

Universes

Other

  • The Robot who breaks up with Jenny in Strip 1 contains “five trillion microcircuits”.

Continuity

  • According to Scott Sanford, the way the “8” of another Jenny's much more mundane apartment in PROSE: Paying It Forward leans to the side to form an infinity symbol was an allusion to Infinity Apartment, although there is no real narrative connection there.
