Some interesting started points: Some
of the Barelith.com community members that thought up the concept of
Jenny Everywhere are listed below. But here are two threads, in
particular, that show the beginnings of The Shifter: Open
Source Comic Book Characters (the idea) Collective
Comics Project (the birth) Quick note: The
Shifter's name was
originally pitched as Julie.
From the Original Website (mostly):
WALKIN' THE WALK
Much of this could be out-dated. But all
of these people had an early hand in the creation process of the
Jenny Everywhere character which we simply adore!
Though the idea of The Shifter was initially
sparked by Steven Wintle, Jenny Everywhere was truly born of
the minds of several people on the Barelith.com forums. Steven was
also the original
webmaster and creator of the original JennyEverywhere.com site. It
had seemed to disappear from the web sometime in May or June of
2007. It is currently unknown when and if the old site will ever
come back online.

Nelson Evergreen is a budding artist, writer and occasional musician who works and sleeps in a languid little terraced house at the top of a hill in Brighton UK.
Aside from his ongoing Shifter collaboration with Mr Macaré, his own self-penned comic projects are slowly approaching pitchable/publishable shape, and he continues to seek financial gratification in the areas of illustration and videogame design.
He is posterlord for Brighton music promoters The Gilded Palace of Sin, has recently had work published by Yorke Notes and Sybex, and enjoys writing about himself in the third person far, far too much.

MC Lentil, a.k.a. John Miers, spent four years on a fine art course doing paintings full of cartoon imagery before realising that he should probably just have been doing comics. The greatest moment of his life was when, voyaging through the nether realms of the pysche, he unearthed the Slab direct from the appendix of the Collective Unconscious. His life since then has been an attempt to understand that moment.
David LoTempio is an aspiring writer with a wife, two children and dog. He has been published by a variety of free newszines and fanzines, notably contributing many articles and interviews about the history of comic books. A fast-food chain once stole ideas from his satire comics for their advertising campaign. Wishes he could write like Nelson Algren.
