Doubt of the Dreadful 11: The Beginning

As Merv the Griffin continues (together with Jesse Brain) to reminisce about his arrival on our plane of existence, we’re reminded how Jenny Everywhere saved the day in her very own, multiversal way. The rest is history!

But we’re not quite finished… stay tuned!

 

Doubt of the Dreadful 10: First Encounter

We’re recounting what led to this very fateful encounter– for the first time! Again!

Merv the Griffin, summoned by Dr Brain, is on a mission to destroy Captain Evening, but he doesn’t know what a “Captain Evening” is! Fate had it, he smashed into the home of the very person he’s looking for. The Captain is too honest not to admit that he’s his target.

At that time, the intrepid Jenny Everywhere was around, too!

The last panel is slightly reworked from the original story in Tales #2, the rest is all-new!

Ballad of Anywhere P27: All Hands on Deck!

Whew! Can you believe it, watchful reader– page 27 already and it is far from over! Could this be the longest comic THE BEHOLDER has ever shared with you?? A shiny no-prize goes to the True Believer who can answer this question!

All of you can, of course, name the various heroes on this page, but just in case, for the new arrivals, we added some name tags. The others, of course, are Jimmy Wherever, Mysto the Space Wizard, Human Tree, and the Officer of the Bureau of Singularity!

Meanwhile, we hear you, we all might need a slight break from all this excitement, so we will switch gears for another, shorter yarn next week! Look forward to it, meandering mortal!

Ballad of Anywhere P25: The Visual Quest

Yes, when you are searching for something important, it helps to look. With your eyes. If you have any.

Thus, our heroes set out to find these dangerous disturbances in our reality, to save everything around us from unraveling! Godspeed, you ragtag gaggle of go-getters!

Ballad of Anywhere P24: Rambunctious Recap

Time for a recap, even though our dramatic personae can hardly contain their energy. Things need to happen, in order to preserve our reality!

It makes THE BEHOLDER content to not only see TWO Shifters, but also the Officer of the Bureau of Singularity again. Your Cosmic Observer has some good memories of past stories with the Bureau.

The two earthlings, Jimmy Wherever and Kelly (formerly the Invincible Woman) have shown their usefulness in the past, too. The robots however, seem not the most competent.

 

Ballad of Anywhere P22: Litmus Test

Kelly’s distrust is not unfounded– the older amongst you may remember the shocking developments in Tales To Behold Book 4! Jenny Everywhere had been a founding member of The Odds, but secretly she was also building a villains team with Dr Brain!

Had she always been the evil Jenny Nowhere in disguise?! Did the good Jenny change and “mutate” into a different personality? The drama of it all was– we never found out! Suddenly, she got devoured by an extra-dimensional monster. The remaining Odds were in shock, for a while…

Thankfully, this time around, Rodney has apparently a fool-proof method to confirm wether this Jenny is a good one or a bad one.

 

Ballad of Anywhere P21: Intermission

There has been a glitch in the space time continuum, which causes our story to have a missing page. To avoid re-numbering all the remaining pages, we’re bringing you this charming intermission image with our two favorite Shifters!

Ballad of Anywhere P20: Completing the Circle

The circle is complete! We’re FINALLY picking up the thread from our legendary “Adventures of the Human Tree” storyline. Here, our friend, The Human Tree, had become a real tree without signs of human cognition anymore. Mysto the Space Wizard went in a deep trance to enter the spirit world, to look for Human Tree’s soul.

Also part of the endeavor: Rodney Rabbit, genius scientist Prof Madison, and former superheroine Kelly, of the Terrific Two (see Journey Into Misery comics for more about her).

Kelly reacts harshly when Jenny Everywhere shows up, because of happenings in Tales To Behold 4, where the Jenny Everywhere of that story, turned out not who we thought she is…

A lot of old threads coming together on a momentous page!

Ballad of Anywhere P19: Talking it Over

Looks like Ms. Anywhere has had enough of these shenanigans and is giving the Singularity official a piece of her mind! As the explanations of the agent are getting ever more complicated, Jenny Everywhere has a plan! And disappears.

Ballad of Anywhere P17: Singularity Situation

Yes, it’s been a while since we’ve seen this lady! Who doesn’t remember this official from the inter dimensional Bureau of Singularity, from their appearance in the aptly named “Singularity War” storyline way back?

Whenever our reality goes whack, or different timelines need to be disentangled, they are on the job!

Ballad of Anywhere P16: Battle for the Apartment

Rapidly, rabid reporter Jimmy Wherever drops in and manages, not fully intentionally, to shorten out the stasis field which holds the two Jennys. But there are still the other “peg heads” to deal with! Jenny Everywhere is happy to jump in on the action, until – ?

 

Ballad of Anywhere P15: Rushing to the Rescue

Our new friend Jimmy Wherever heard some disturbing cries and noises when he called Jenny Everywhere, so now he’s rushing over to see what’s what! In true heroic fashion, he runs and jumps across the rooftops…
Climbing down the fire escape, he sees Jenny and our other new friend trapped by some… strange, otherworldly characters! And who are they calling ??

 

Ballad of Anywhere P12: The Theory of Anywhere

Our friends are having a coffee break to discuss a theory of Anywhere, the Universe, and All The Rest of It.

As Jimmy Wherever checks in, he hears some shocking and most concerning sounds on the other end of the line! As we see a bit of his work place, we’ve already reached the end of the first chapter! But don’t worry, there’s a lot more…

Ballad of Anywhere P11: A Meeting of Jennys

And there we have it! A meeting of two Shifters, apparently! For Ms Anywhere, it is a stroke of luck that they were both shifting at the same time! Hopefully, she’ll get some answers from her more experienced counterpart.

Both Jennys have a lot of questions about their current situation. The identity questions of J. Everywhere might have to wait, for the moment…

Ballad of Anywhere P10: Dynamic Escape

Will you look at this dynamic escape on a dynamic page! Our new Jenny is able to slip out of her window and down the fire escape. Unfortunately, her cries for help are not heeded by anyone… In fact, she’s cut off by yet another of the strange visitors! Yet thankfully, at the last second, she disappears yet again in a shift of energy!

 

Ballad Anywhere P09: Word of Warning

 

Obviously, Jenny’s cat is not in the habit of answering her in human speak. So the danger must be extraordinary! Or, this is just one of those strange occurrences, like in the Prologue of our story.

In any case, some absurd characters are suddenly in Anywhere’s kitchen, giving her pussy-cat the second scare of the day! And not just him!

Ballad of Anywhere P08: Thoughts of Rebooting

Even after a generous dose of morning hanky-panky, our Shifter is still lacking memories associated with this timeline.

Like with computers, she figures a restart should be the first thing to try!

 

Ballad of Anywhere P07: Shift Begin

Some foreboding figures with interesting shapes, and an unexpected SHIFT! How is this possible! Jenny Anywhere’s kitty doesn’t seem to know, either. At least the critter gets some calming head scritches, while Jenny is faced with some head scratching mysteries…

The Ballad of Anywhere P06: Shift Over

The Bank may say yes, but Jenny Anywhere says no, and takes off to end her shift a little early. Steamed and distracted, she might notice a bit too late, that a car is heading into her path! Oh no! Is this already the end of our brand-new character??

 

The Ballad of Anywhere P05: The Debut of Anywhere

Two remarkable appearances on this unremarkable page of monetary drama: The return of Nefario, last seen in a Centennia solo story waaay back in Tales To Behold 2. And secondly, the first ever comic appearance of this young woman… our titular hero of this tale. She’s been seen in other comics, on Public Domain Wikis, and stand-alone art… but this is the first time we see her canonically in the BEHOLDERverse stories. We present: Jenny Anywhere.
