Jimmy Wherever

From Jenny Everywhere Wiki
Revision as of 12:05, 29 October 2021 by Angela (talk | contribs)

Jimmy Wherever, nicknamed the Shiftee, was a muscular, blond Canadian man who acted as a boyfriend to many versions of Jenny Everywhere. Although it was unclear whether there existed several Jimmies in the Multiverse all involved with Jenny, and whether these Jimmies had any contact or special relationship, Jimmy did not at any rate possess shifting abilities of his own, only becoming able to travel the Multiverse when Jenny took him along on her own trips.

Description

Physical appearance

Jimmy Wherever was a pale-skinned Canadian man with short blond hair. He was clean-shaven. Broad-shouldered, he wore a red sweater adorned with a white maple leaf, in allusion to his origins. (COMIC: Jenny Everywhere and Friends, When She's Gone)

Personality

Jimmy was highly supportive of Jenny, and the two loved each other deeply. He sometimes felt depressed when she left him behind to go on adventures of her own. (COMIC: When She's Gone)

Biography

In Reality Z-25 31-H

In Reality Z-25 31-H, Jimmy once joined Jenny Everywhere and Jenny Anywhere on an adventure a few days before Jenny's birthday. Holding Jenny's hand, he raced with the two Shifters through an unidentified cosmic landscape. (COMIC: Jenny Everywhere and Friends)

A new beginning

 
A forlorn Jimmy. (COMIC: When She's Gone)

Jimmy Wherever dated another version of Jenny, but started feeling blue due to her always being off on impossible adventures where he couldn't follow her. Overhearing Jimmy singing to himself, Jenny replied, in song, that she would be glad to take him along on her next trip. (COMIC: When She's Gone)

High-schooler in the 1980s

In one universe reminiscent of a clichéd 1980s high-school movie, Jimmy Wherever attended high school alongside Jenny Everywhere and Jimmy Anytime. This incarnation of Jimmy wore a wearing a varsity jacket. (PROSE: Jenny Everywhere and the Lord of Hell)

Trapped in a “Very Ordinary” world

One incarnation of Jimmy Wherever dated Jenny Everywhere, who promised to keep him safe when she took him along on adventures. However, Jenny Nowhere once managed to trap him in a universe from which it was impossible to shift, alongside several others among Jenny's allies, and, ultimately, Jenny herself. After reuniting with his love, Jimmy helped her stand firm against Nowhere's coercion, leading to the villainess giving up for now and letting them go.

Behind the scenes

Genesis

Jimmy Wherever was unveiled by Carter-Ethan Rankin in February 2013 on the Public Domain Super-Heroes Wiki, under a similar open-source license to Jenny Everywhere's, as part of an effort to create a recurring background cast for Jenny that could be used as freely as the Shifter herself. Rankin created Jenny Anywhere and Jimmy Anytime around the same period.

The public-domain blurb written by Rankin to introduce the character included many details which have yet to be translated into narrative media.

Jimmy Wherever is a love interest of Jenny Everywhere.

Code-named "The Shiftee," Jimmy, himself, is non-powered but, may shift wherever Jenny is headed by simply holding her hand. Thus, he can easily be "wherever" Jenny Everywhere is. Being a top journalism student, he has excellent detective skills.

He is Canadian with blond hair, blue eyes, and an athletic build. Where he came from or what his up-bringing was like is, as yet, unknown.

In contrast to Jenny Everywhere's favourite food being toast, Jimmy's is bread... un-toasted.

He has a genetically modified clone known as Jimmy Anytime.
