Jenkins was a timid man struggling with depression and feelings of worthlessness, largely induced by [[Kelly]]'s mistreatment of him. He had no interest in wealth and power, preferring a quiet, happy life.

Recruiting a team of heroes from among [[Captain Evening (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Captain Evening]]'s most trusted allies, they travelled to the [[Nexus of Realities]]. Jenkins, sent ahead to scout, ended up waiting a week for the others to join him due to a strange time-dilation effect between the Nexus and Reality Z-25 31-H. | ||
Once the team was gathered, they broke into the Bureau's headquarters, an infinitely-high skyscraper in the centre of the strange pocket dimension that was the Nexus. Jenkins, turning invisible, and joined by Madison (turned invisible by [[Mysto the Space-Wizard]]), snuck up to Floor 239 while the others created a distraction on the ground floor. Revealing themselves to the [[Director of Singularity]], they bluffed him into thinking that they'd switched the labels on some of the tapes containing the Bureau's records of the [[Multiverse]], and got him to sign a contract promising not to interfere in Reality Z-25 31-H again. They then told him the truth before heading off. Once back in their home universe, and safe at last, Kelly and Jenkins decided to spend some time to rest, without using their powers whether for good or evil.

Snapping, Kelly blasted Jenkins to smithereens with her powers. His [[soul]] subsequently ended up in [[Hell (Reality Z-25 31-H)|Hell]]. However, Kelly, while she felt no remorse about the murder, discovered that her powers were inseparable from Jenkins's, such that with him gone, she was slowly fading back into a normal human. Finding this unacceptable, especially as a [[Cosmic Solution|robot]] was attacking the city, she got [[Alicia]] and [[Babs]] to set up a ritual that allowed her to visit Hell and meet [[The Devil (Reality Z-25 31-H)|the Devil]]. She sold her soul to him without hesitation in exchange for him allowing her to leave Hell and bring a resurrected Jenkins back with her. | ||

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Journey Out Of Misery (comic story)|Journey Out Of Misery]]'')]]With Satanas agreeing to the bargain, the two were propelled back to the land of the living — specifically, Alicia and Babs' dorm room. There, however, they discovered their powers had not returned yet, as they needed to resync their biologies. With no time to run to Madison's lab for the purpose, Kelly convinced Jenkins to sleep with her to achieve the same effect. As soon as her powers returned, she flew off towards the robot, carrying Jenkins with her. He witnessed her immediate failure to do anything to harm the robot, which sent him into fits of hysterical laughter at the absurdity of the sequence of events. When a [[Agent of the Cosmic Order (Journey Out Of Misery)|passerby]] asked him “if the world was worth saving”, he unthinkingly answered that it was, because it was all worth it for this one hilarious moment. It turned out the stranger was an agent of the [[Cosmic Order]], and even such a simple argument for [[Earth]]'s existence being worthwhile was all he needed to call off the robot. | [[File:Kelly and Jenkins part ways.png|thumb|left|220px|Kelly and Jenkins agree that keeping their powers would not be worth the irritation of each other's company.
