I Dream of Another Jeanie Bottle – Page 15
Mar12
Next week will be the final page of I Dream of a Another Jeanie Bottle for a little while. Hachimitsu’s going to be taking his own hiatus, and we’ve got some good (and bad) news over at The Melvin Chronicles, which every JB reader’s going to want to know. So click that link and check it out!
Also, that young lady in the final panel looks awfully familiar, don’t you think…?
Princess Jasmine is that you?
Jasmine is a character in this story?
So I guess that means Genie, Eden and Jafar are part of this continuity too?
Makes me wonder what other characters are yet to appear in this story….
Thank you so much for shouting out Eden. One of the lesser known (by the public) buy more entertaining characters in the Aladdin canon. Sigh…..I miss that show.
I am very happy she made a second appearance though and it kinda was nice seeing her imprison in a glass tube XD
Princesses jasmine a character COOL!!
Why do I get the feeling that the Panel 7 woman isn’t so much ignoring Jasmine as she is in dire need of a bathroom? Also, is that Asha in Panel 6?
> is that Asha in Panel 6?
Yup! Nice catch.
” met up” in panel 3?
Ah shoot, you’re right. I’ll fix it.
The elites are very dismissive today.
Either the genie in the last panel is actually Agent Anderson-The genie looks like whoever it is that they are thinking about when they open the bottle. That is why our Jeanie looks like Barbara Eden. Or the genie with the red hair is going to look like Robin Williams.
More likely the genie with the red hair is (the) Haji, since that is the person who was talking to the woman in the hooded robe.
The brown-eyed, black-haired genie who’s being ignored–assuming the woman is a genie–isn’t the green-eyed, brown-haired Agent Anne Anderson.
Four of the other genies appear in Jeanie Bottle #432; The male genies in the first second and third panels; Labab, Haji’s first, in the seventh panel; and Lord Natshir, the genie with the diagonal sash, in the the eighth panel. The male genie who threatens our girl with jail could be either Lord Guano or Lord Den (Jeanie Bottle 475)
Of course the red haired genie in panel next to last could also be Lahab..
face in the last panel looks a bit like Disney Jasmine from Aladdin to me
“…When they find out who you are….”
Classically, the greatest rewards are granted when treating even the meekest with kindness, or at least courtesy. The old stories are filled with that insight.
On the other hand, her openings are vague, even empty. Nothing distinguishes her from any other beggar. (Or, for that matter, mugger. “A moment of your time” is a very common opening.) Don’t say “Not that I’m aware of”, say (ferex) “Disney’s Alladin, romantic lead.”
Hmm, everyone seems pretty sure that she’s Jasmine from Disney’s Aladdin. She does look like her, but I think there’s enough room for her to be someone else.
But even if she “is” her, the question still remains just “how” she is her.
Even in the normal canon, we have seen magic that turns people into what they expect a role to be (hence because of Disney there are now many blue genies.) But we also see a number of shows that are just “real” in this world for some reason.
So if she “is” Jasmine, would she be the real Jasmine, someone magically made to look like her, or is the story of Aladdin based off of “real” events in this comic, or what?
Hell, since this whole story is non-canon, anything is up for grabs…
I do not have an answer to any of that question (well, maybe to the cast of Bewitched but not to the Dukes of Hazzard), BUT according to Araceli both Aladdin, Ali Baba and the 40 thiefts were real… though not exactly the like in Disney movies, so who knows, maybe Jasmine in this world was inspired by real events, just like with I dream of a Jeannie, and Bewitched.
Nice banner, I always thought Jeanie was at least part Irish, Now for the corned beef and cabbage and green beer. Happy St. Pats day.
No mashed potatoes? BLASPHEMY.
mashed potatoes, mmmmmm yummie. But with white milk gravy or brown.
@gary – Mashed potatoes with brown onion gravy, lamb sausage, and cabbage. The family loved that meal, and my sister-in-law and I loved cooking it (mostly because it meant other people had to clean the dishes afterwards 😉 ).
