''Webcomic/JillTrentSheSirScienceSleuth'' is a RemixComic parody of the original, in which Jill was formerly a slow-witted janitor named Jim, before exposure to [[AppliedPhlebotinum Femavium]] [[GenderBender turned him into a girl]] who has "girl-brain cells with the proportional density of 58 girls" that allow her to [[ForScience Do Science]] at an amazingly high level.

Jill was a scientist and inventor who (alongside her ''very'' close gal pal Daisy Smythe) solved mysteries with a combination of scientific knowhow and old-fashioned fisticuffs.

While quite obscure today, ''Jill Trent, Science Sleuth'' is interesting for its positive depiction of an independent action heroine who was never dependent on her boyfriend to get her out of a jam. Indeed, she didn't even seem to ''have'' a boyfriend, which itself was quite unusual for comic book heroines of the day. And while Jill typically used her science skills to solve the mystery, stories were generally resolved by Jill and Daisy punching out the bad guys much like any male comic book hero would have.

* GirlyBruiser: Jill is thin and attractive, wears skirts, hats, and heels like other stylish '40s gals... and punches out bad guys with ease. Daisy also might qualify, but she's a bit more "butch" in appearance (she's slightly heavy-set, DependingOnTheArtist) and personality.

'''TG Comics' Jill Trent, She-Sir Science Sleuth: The [[http://tgcaps.com/caps/modcomics/suedenim/jetdream/jet-dream-1970-annual/JT01_01.jpg.php Remix Comic]]'''

Original Jill Trent stories have been recaptioned and presented as 1940s precursors to the fictitious TG Comics ''JetDream'' feature.

In these stories, heroine Jill Trent was once a male janitor named Jim Trent, who was [[GenderBender transformed]] by exposure to the strange element [[AppliedPhlebotinum Femavium]] into a girl -- but a girl who still has the spinal fluid of a man! When the atoms of Jill's Femavium-enhanced blood were mixed with her "Man-Fluid," the interaction gave her brain cells with the proportional density of 58 girls. Together with her fiancée Daisy, she uses her newfound she-science abilities to fight crime!
