Yet another [[#Divergent Everywheres|cluster]] of Jenny Nowheres were not actually proper incarnations of the wider Jenny Nowhere (sharing no telepathic link to one another or other Nowheres), but instead, were incarnations of Jenny Everywhere who had been artificially cut off from the Everywhere psychic network and become disillusioned with the metaphysical ethics of Jenny Everywhere's hyper-dimensional nature. They believed, in essence, that individual Jennies did not have free will; they saw themselves as liberated and sought to “pass on” this “gift” to other incarnations of Jenny Everywhere by any means necessary, whether they liked it or not.

One Jenny Nowhere was originally [[Jenny Everywhere#Becoming Jenny Nowhere|an incarnation]] of [[Jenny Everywhere]] until a freak accident cut her off from the Jenny Everywhere psychic network. Suddenly free from the constant influence and watch of the billions of other Jennies, she came to believe that she had only now gained free will, with all the other incarnations of Jenny living in a kind of mindless slavery, mere puppets of a hyper-dimensional entity. She reverse-engineered her injury and worked out how to replicate its effects through controlled brain surgery, and began finding other Jenny Everywheres in other worlds. Each of them in turn became a Jenny Nowhere with similar convictions to the original and spread out further to unmake Everywheres herself.

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Armagedda (Reprise) (comic story)|Armagedda (Reprise)]]'')]]Once more in the guise of “Evil Cloak”, Nowhere travelled to [[Universe (Redistribution)|the universe]] to which she had banished [[Armagedda]], where, because instead of a sapient human race there existed a species of human-like non-sapient cattle tended to by anthropomorphic cow, Armagedda had had a rather humiliating existence eating grass and living as a farm animal. Appearing as a mysterious hooded rider (thanks to a steed stolen from one of the “cowboys”), Evil Cloak offered to restore Armagedda to her full glory if she agreed to help Evil Cloak with her own plans. Armagedda defiantly refused, however, claiming that a servant of the [[Cosmic Order]] would not bargain with “mortals”. Evil Cloak rode off calmly, promising to come back soon to see if Armagedda changed her mind.

===== The Captain Perfect affair ===== | |||
[[File:Evil Cloak scares Captain Perfect.png|thumb|right|310px|Evil Cloak demonstrates her powers to a terrified [[Captain Perfect]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[Meanwhile, On Earth (comic story)|Meanwhile, On Earth]]'')]]Evil Cloak continued to recruit supervillains for her “scheme of world domination”, notably enticing the [[demon]] [[Red Vicious]] with promises that he would get to “break stuff”. She also contacted morally-dubious “hero” [[Captain Perfect#In Reality Z-25 31-H|Captain Perfect]] and helped him devise a scheme to come back in the public eye, suggesting that he stage a fake supervillain attack at the ceremony where [[Mayor Wilson]] was set to give him the key to the city, and then dramatically foil it in front of the cameras. | |||
As Jenny Everywhere, she “revealed” to [[the Odds]] that her powers were “back, big-time” and used them to [[shift]] the entire group back from [[England]] to the [[Fortress of Evening]]. After the heroes freshened up a little, their relaxation was cut short when television alerted the group to the attack on the key-giving ceremony. Despite Perfect's weak protests, the group, including Jenny, rushed to “help”; they were unable to defeat the giant mechanical attacker, “[[Ultimatron]]”, but distracted Perfect; as he played his rehearsed moves wrong, he got actually knocked out by Ultimatron. At a loss about what to do, the henchpeople operating the Ultimatron robot did their best to actually fight the Odds until the robot was destroyed by [[Centennia]]. Jenny joined the afterparty at the Fortress, where the Captain invited not only all the Odds plus Centennia, but also all of his other heroic acquaintances. A little while into the party, Jenny and the Captain snuck off and slept together, although they made it clear to one another that they were remaining just friends and this was simply a bit of fun. | |||
After the party wrapped up, Jenny snuck off and donned the robes of Evil Cloak once again to drop in on Captain Perfect, bemoaning how the plan had gone all wrong. He initially attempted to renege on his agreement with Evil Cloak, believing himself more powerful than the pure schemer he believed Evil Cloak to be. Evil Cloak cowed him back into submission by rapidly shifting him through a variety of nightmarish landscapes without moving a muscle herself, before returning the two of them to Perfect's office.

[[File:Jenny Nowhere (Nowhere).png|right|thumb|150px|The terrifying Jenny Nowhere. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[Nowhere (short story)|Nowhere]]'')]]One version of Jenny Nowhere was a stern, joyless woman of statuesque appearance with long blond hair; she wore a black suit and, most strikingly, a gas mask. She cast no shadow and once stated that she had “lost” her name “a long time ago”. On one occasion, she resurfaced in the multiverse and, after frightening a male associate of [[Jenny Everywhere]], told him to go warn her that Nowhere was back and “it was ''her'' turn”.

She was sent to [[Westbrook]] by [[Chaos]] in the form of a crystal orb, and took on a negative version of [[Jenny Everywhere#Jenny Jacobs, the Shifter of Westbrook|the local Jenny Everywhere]]'s appearance, also acquiring a duplicate of her [[Shift|shifting]] powers in the process and taking on the name of “Jenny Nowhere”. Her first fight with Jenny Everywhere didn't go well, as she couldn't control her powers very well yet and had no knowledge of other Jenny Nowheres; Jenny Everywhere forced her to admit that she'd been sent by Chaos and sent her running for her life.
