This one is by Scott Wegener. He did the big comic I posted. I’m desperately trying to come up with a nickname for him. Any ideas?

This one is by Jeff Powell. He lettered the comic I have available. He’s a great guy. No, really… I mean that. Some call him Whitey Blaq.
This here is by John Broglia. He’s into zombies right now, but he hasn’t tried to eat my brain, yet.
This one is by Lawrence Basso. He colored the comic book available for download. He likes Spawn.
This comes from Jamar Nicholas. He’s the man who taught me the meaning of the words “steak whiz with”. For that, I owe him immensely.
Essay sent in by Ben Christensen
I first met Jenny Everywhere a number of months after the initial explosion on the scene. This would have been late 2003 – early 2004. People like Nelson Evergreen and Alex Hernandez were setting the net ablaze with their various ideas and webcomics starring our little Shifter.
What first drew me to the character was the creative freedom she allowed. A character that could go anywhere, a character that could be anything. These qualities sparked more than a few ideas in my head.
I became enthralled with multi-dimensionality, universes upon universes. I ranted more than a few times online and to my friends (much to their dismay) about the limitless potential and the awe inspiring scope that Ms. Everywhere was capable of.
What I really want to talk about though is WHY Jenny Everywhere is so important. WHY I feel that every man, woman, and child should go out at make their own Jenny.
Because we can.
More and more in our culture the great characters are being held back from us. Overstuffed (and I dare say greedy) corporations gobble up ideas because they think if they have control then they have power. Laws get changed over and over again so that the people at the top can continue to check off a list of things THEY hold sway over. Never mind the fact that they often have no idea who these characters are.
And why are they scared of loosing the power? Why do they fight decade after decade for the rights to characters like Superman? It’s not that they think they’ll no longer be able to make comics, it’s because their scared someone will do it BETTER.
The creative process is being stunted because the nameless millionaires (or billionaires these days) can’t stand the thought that someone might actual do something BETTER on their own.
The thought of allowing any sort of free evolution of the characters scares them. They’re fearful that one day they’ll wake up and these creative properties that are their bread and butter won’t fit into the nice neat prepackaged units they’ve made for them.
They’re the macrocosmic version of the toy collector of geekdom. Keep it in the box, keep it mint, THAT’S how you make money.
I’d rather open up that character and f’ing PLAY with it!
Jenny Everywhere is an opened action figure waiting to be played with. Sure she’s a little beat up from the last kid that had her, but she comes with infinite accessories and limitless 1-2 punch action.
Multiverse sold separately.
Jenny Everywhere is only three years old. Her mythology is so new that it literally hasn’t been written yet. The creators that have already worked with her have put their stamp into history and it’s our task to push her into the mainstream. Imagine where she’ll be twenty years from now. Forty. Sixty.
Imagine that, and then get cracking.
I promise to do the same.
We worked real hard on this one. Hope you enjoy.
