[[File:Jenny Everywhere (Valentine's Day).png|thumb|right|210px|Jenny Everywhere after her Valentine's Day date with David. ([[COMIC]]: [[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|''My Bloody Valentine'']])]]Some time after meeting [[David (My Bloody Valentine)|David]], this Jenny invited him to her house for Valentine's Day. Before long, however, she found her consciousness [[shifting]] to what versions of herselves in three other universes were experiencing on ''their'' Valentine's Day. Distracted, she claimed to David that she was on her period, and apologetically told him they had better call off the date. David agreed, and hurriedly gave her the present he'd found for her, a copy of the ''[[Plasmanomicon]]''. Jenny was disappointed that even David had gotten her a “special” gift rather than something ordinary for a change, and filed the book with the presents received by the other three Jennies, which she had somehow [[shifting|shifted]] into ''her'' reality. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere (Soulless Mate).png|thumb|left|210px|An “empowered” Jenny in the [[Dense universe (Soulless Mate)|dense universe]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Soulless Mate (comic story)|Soulless Mate]]'')]]Some time later, Jenny and David had planned their actual first date, to a concert. However, as Jenny was distractedly paging through the ''[[Plasmanomicon]]'' as she [[Shifting|shifted]] to get them to the concert, her close-range teleportation failed, instead shifting the pair of them to another universe, a “[[Heaven (Soulless Mate)|Heaven]]” inhabited by Hindu Gods. The two were captured by [[Shiva]], who cast them out into a [[Dense universe (Soulless Mate)|“dense”, decaying universe]]. The two were soon restrained by the demon-like wretches who inhabited it, with David being tortured by a [[Cactus Demon]] whose spines tore at his face; however, thanks to Jenny's verbal guidance, he was soon able to reach a spiritual awakening which empowered him enough to frighten away the demons and, seemingly, restore his soul to him. After sharing a first kiss which Jenny, he helped her lead the demon-creatures to rebel against their unjust gods. As they reemerged in Heaven, Shiva congratulated the two, as this was in fact what he had meant to happen all along. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Soulless Mate (comic story)|Soulless Mate]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere (The Robbery).png|thumb|right|300px|Jenny Everywhere, superthief. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')]]In [[Universe B (My Bloody Valentine)|another universe]], Jenny was a glamorous jewel-thief in a relationship with an elegant and talented [[master-thief (My Bloody Valentine)|master-thief]]. Though he'd originally promised to take her to [[Paris]] for Valentine's Day, they had to cancel to make use of an opportunity to steal a huge diamond. Although they ended up tripping the alarm, the master-thief told Jenny not to worry about him, and instead to take the diamond and escape. [[#Valentine's Day|The Jenny who dated David]] (to whom she was physically identical) was later shown to have [[Shifting|shifted]] the diamond in question to her house. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere (Jenny and the Gumbie Cat).png|thumb|left|150px|A bored Jenny lounging in [[Scientist (My Bloody Valentine)|the scientist]]'s lab. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')]][[Universe C (My Bloody Valentine)|One universe]]'s Jenny lived with a [[Scientist (My Bloody Valentine)|middle-aged mad scientist]] in his gothic laboratory-slash-private-museum-slash-castle, though it was unclear whether she harbored any romantic feelings towards him. On one Valentine's Day, he gifted her [[Jenny Anydots]], a genetically-engineered two-headed [[Gumbie Cat]] he had created with her in mind; she was unimpressed by his decision to name the creature after her. Like the diamond, Jenny Anydots soon found her way to the house of [[#Valentine's Day|the Jenny who dated David]] (to whom she was physically identical). ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere (A Date in Space).png|thumb|right|150px|Jenny waiting for her date. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')]]Yet another Jenny existed [[Universe D (My Bloody Valentine)|out in space]], where she was in a committed (though not always smooth-sailing) relationship with a [[Jenny Everywhere's nonhuman date (My Bloody Valentine)|huge alien being]]. She had to wear a space-suit to visit him on his home-planet, seemingly unable to breathe the same atmosphere. She was gifted a [[Raggalisk Egg]] by him on Valentine's Day, with the Egg also ending up in the house of [[#Valentine's Day|the Jenny who dated David]].  

That version of Jenny was physically identical to David's girlfriend but dressed in a “1960's sci-fi” sort of space-suit, complete with huge bubble-like helmet, black gloves going up to her elbows, and a skirt. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[My Bloody Valentine (comic story)|My Bloody Valentine]]'')

As they got back to Right-On By The Sea, Jenny confided to Clea that she was starting to get tired of getting into fights all the time, and the two agree on a wish that things quiet down for the foreseeable future. This wish was not to be answered, however, as [[Jenny Everywhere#In Right-On By The Sea|Jenny Nowhere]] had just arrived into town. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Damn Fine Hostile Takeover (comic story)|Damn Fine Hostile Takeover]]'')

[[File:Jenny in Mrs Zirma.png|thumb|right|210px|Jenny in a cheerful mood, discussing a mission with [[Nigel]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Mrs Zirma (comic story)|Mrs Zirma]]'')]]In [[Universe (Mrs Zirma)|one universe]], Jenny had become "an [[Everywhere]]" through hard work and risk-taking, with the title appearing to refer to a society of monster-hunters. This Jenny had the "standard look" but appeared more ruthless than usual incarnations when dealing with her foes, and was also allegedly prone to drinking too much, resulting in hangovers. One of her partners in monster-hunting was [[Nigel]], an older man who would give her assignments or intel about her targets.  

[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Afrenasia.png|thumb|left|Jenny materialising in Pedro's [[Universe (Afrenasia)|home universe]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Afrenasia (comic story)|Afrenasia]]'')]]One version of Jenny had dark reddish hair and a tendency to call people "darling". Her form of [[shift]]ing appeared to make her emerge from a foaming rainbow when she appeared in a new universe. Jenny's first trip to [[Universe (Afrenasia)|her six-billionth reality]] (and counting) was part of a "special mission" in the context of which, in a race against time, she had to bring a message to [[Pedro Primavera]], whom she found as a confused young man on sitting a park bench. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Afrenasia (comic story)|Afrenasia]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Borders.png|thumb|right]]As later recalled by someone who had been to school with her, in [[Universe (Borders)|one world]], Jenny, a thin-faced Asian young woman, attended a regular high school where she came across as “the smartest girl in school”. However, she spoke freely of her knowledge of alternative realities, including such things as the [[Mongol invasion of North America]]. At some point, she and the person who'd later recall her story became involved in a reality-bending adventure which impressed Jenny's companion to the extent that they never spoke about it to anyone, even their husband. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Borders (comic story)|Borders]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Beauty as a Beast.png|thumb|left|A bloodied, angry Jenny confronting [[Snow White]] in [[Hideea]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Beauty as a Beast (comic story)|Beauty as a Beast]]'')]]One “clever” incarnation of Jenny with a grouchy disposition and a tendency for strong language had very pale skin and short-cropped black hair. She wore a black parka and yellow scarf, and carried a backpack. This Jenny once [[shift]]ed at random and appeared in a magical realm called [[Hideea]], much to her dismay, as she disliked these kinds of “magical realities”.

[[File:Ms Everywhere.png|thumb|right|Ms Everywhere as she appeared in [[the Graveyard]].  ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One Jenny Everywhere lived long enough to age into a mature-looking woman who wore a trenchcoat and served as a mentor to younger versions of Jenny just beginning to figure out their power, when they first came to [[the Graveyard]]. She notably officiated the funeral of [[#The Robbery|a different Jenny who'd died]]. This Jenny, who had younger versions call her “Ms Everywhere” for clarity's sake, was knowledgeable about the nature of their collective powers and of the Graveyards, and also knew the details of several incarnations' lives. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Main Jenny Everywhere in The Death of Jenny Everywhere.png|thumb|left|Jenny Everywhere in [[the Graveyard]] for the first time. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One young version of Jenny Everywhere lived in a [[Universe (The Death of Jenny Everywhere)|a largely mundane universe]] in a flat of her own. She was a thing young Asian woman with a pixie cut and usually wore a striped sweater. She grew up aware that she could “do things others could not”, but only with a very dim, subconscious sense that there were “others like her” in other worlds. She discovered the truth after she was transported to [[the Graveyard]] for the first time, where [[#Ms Everywhere|Ms Everywhere]] took it upon herself to explain things to her and introduce her to a few other incarnations of Jenny. Upon returning, she forgot the specifics of her stay in the Graveyard but retained her knowledge of her nature as “the Shifter”, and delighted in the fact that she would never be alone again. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Blonde Jenny Everywhere in The Death of Jenny Everywhere.png|thumb|right|Jenny Everywhere greeting one of her other selves while in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One Jenny had shoulder-length blonde hair and wore a black leather jacket. Uniquely, she did not appear to wear a scarf, or at least not all this time. Though all incarnations of Jenny had a “ready smile,” this incarnation was particularly prone to such, even at a funeral. She was one of the Jennies to whom [[#Discovering her nature|a young Jenny]] was introduced by [[#Ms Everywhere|Ms Everywhere]] while in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Earrings Jenny in The Death of Jenny Everywhere.png|thumb|left|Jenny Everywhere greeting one of her other selves while in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One black Jenny had short hair, a quieter attitude than her [[#Blonde Jenny|blonde counterpart]], and wore large earrings. She also appeared to wear large, square glasses in place of the traditional goggles. She was one of the Jennies to whom [[#Discovering her nature|a young Jenny]] was introduced by [[#Ms Everywhere|Ms Everywhere]] while in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Cat Jenny Everywhere.png|thumb|right|Jenny Everywhere meowing at herself in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One version of Jenny Everywhere was a largely ordinary-looking cat, albeit one wearing a small scarf and goggles. She was introduced to [[#Discovering her nature|the young Jenny]] by [[#Ms Everywhere|Ms Everywhere]], answering the greeting with a placid “Meow”, while in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Short-haired Jenny in The Death of Jenny Everywhere.png|thumb|left|Jenny Everywhere in [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]A Jenny with a bob-cut was among the many Shifters who were mentally transported to [[the Graveyard]]. She lacked any visible goggles. She heatedly discussed the identity of the Jenny who'd died with a few of her other selves; she had “heard” that the Jenny who'd died was [[#The Robbery|one]] who'd been killed while trying to steal a huge diamond, while others believed she had died in a plane crash or been murdered by somebody's wife. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Johnny Everywhere.png|thumb|right|Johnny Everywhere as he appeared inside [[the Graveyard]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')]]One male incarnation of Jenny Everywhere went by the name of Johnny Everywhere. He had short brown hair, kind eyes and strong eyebrows. Johnny wore the traditional goggles and scarf as well as a frock coat, which he wore over a waistcoat with narrow vertical stripes. He also smoked a pipe. Johnny was trans, and was once mentally summoned to [[the Graveyard]]; although, in accordance with his mental identity, he appeared as a man within the Graveyard, he had, at the time, not yet undergone reassignment surgery in the physical world, a fact of which [[#Ms Everywhere|Ms Everywhere]] was aware, giving him grief over it. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Death of Jenny Everywhere (comic story)|The Death of Jenny Everywhere]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere (The Freak Issue).png|thumb|left|Jenny during her adventure saving the pier from [[Mr Haffalife]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Freak Issue (comic story)|The Freak Issue]]'')]]In [[Universe (The Freak Issue)|one universe]], Jenny was apparently created by mad scientists as “a prototype for a superior human species”. She had various idiosyncratic superpowers, mostly revolving around increased senses, such as an “ultra-sensitive endocrine system”, “a mental conduit to the invisible plane of ecstasy unobtainable to we average mortals” and the ability to feel other people's ennui.  

[[File:Scarfless Jenny in Holiday Pandemonium.png|thumb|right|Jenny Everywhere striking a bargain with [[Pan]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Holiday Pandemonium (comic story)|Holiday Pandemonium]]'')]]In [[Universe (Holiday Pandemonium)|one universe]], a skinny and foul-mouthed Jenny took a holiday to [[Greece]], staying at the [[Illyria Inn]] and taking a guided tour of the ruins in the area. She found the tour disappointing, but one of her fellow tourists, the photographer [[Drew (Holiday Pandemonium)|Drew]], caught her eye. She attempted to entice him to sleep with her, but he ignored her clear attempts to initiate a flirt. Sulking in a nearby forest, she came across the god [[Pan]], who agreed to help her by temporarily transforming her in the form Drew would find most attractive.  

[[File:Jerry Everywhere in Holiday Pandemonium.png|thumb|left|Jerry Everywhere, a temporary male form of the same incarnation of the Shifter. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Holiday Pandemonium (comic story)|Holiday Pandemonium]]'')]]As Drew was gay, this turned out to be a muscular young ''man''. In this new form, the Shifter decided to go by “Jerry Everywhere”. After trying out his new body for a few minutes, Jerry headed back to the ruins to find Drew, but once again failed to seduce him, as it turned out Drew had no interest in casual sex in the first place and indeed found Jerry's advances off-putting. After turning back into a woman due to the spell thus being broken (as Drew had rejected the appearance supposedly patterned after his desires), the spited Jenny decided to sleep with Pan instead. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Holiday Pandemonium (comic story)|Holiday Pandemonium]]'')

[[File:Jenny Everywhere in Graveyard Shift.png|thumb|right|Jenny moments after she brought down Alec Swan. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Graveyard Shift (comic story)|Graveyard Shift]]'')]]One incarnation of Jenny, who had big, spiky black hair and didn't wear a scarf (but instead a black parka with large white trimming), once accidentally [[shift]]ed into a graveyard in [[Universe (Graveyard Shift)|a universe]] where a loathsome necromancer named [[Alec Swan]] had recently returned from the dead. Bumping into [[Morrison Moore]], an eccentric Scottish “investigator of the weird,” she helped him locate Swan. After Swan attacked them with an army of zombified versions of himself, who managed to kill Moore, Jenny was able to hit the original Swan with a gunshot, ending his evil at last.

[[File:Jenny Everywhere of Universe D (The Late Shift).png|thumb|left|A bitter Jenny Everywhere at work. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Late Shift (comic story)|The Late Shift]]'')]]One version of Jenny worked as a retail clerk in some kind of bookshop and wore a short-sleeved checkered shirt. She could only shift in space and through dimensions, appearing incapable of time-travel within [[Universe D (The Late Shift)|her own universe]], forcing her to come back from any shifting adventures in time for her shift at work.

[[File:Late Shift Jenny cameo in Say The Word.png|thumb|right|140px|[[The Nommo]]'s glimpse of this incarnation. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Say The Word (comic story)|Say The Word]]'')]]Returning home, she finished her introduction from behind the counter, not noticing several other Jennies in the queue. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Late Shift (comic story)|The Late Shift]]'') Later, while reading the mind of [[#Assisting the Nommo|a different Jenny]], an alien ambassador known as [[the Nommo]] caught a black-and-white glimpse of this incarnation, who was seen sitting in front of a computer monitor.
