Jean AKA Jeannie AKA Jeanie is a film, book, and magazine reviewer for a national magazine. Most of Jean’s work is done through email, which means he doesn't have to go into the office.
On a trip to find a gift for his girlfriend, Jean found an empty Genie Bottle. Upon picking up this bottle, Jean became the bottle’s new genie-powered occupant. Not only was Jean turned into a genie, but the bottle turned him into what he believed a genie of the bottle should look like. Which, due to his fascination with a classic 60s TV show, turned him into a busty blonde woman.
A junior engineer working for a small engineering firm in Cocoa Beach. The firm focuses mostly on NASA projects.
Neil is Jean’s best friend. When Jean was turned into a genie, Neil became Jeanie’s master.
This is some quality comedy plotting. This is on its way to being the best storyline so far. I’d rate the chapter with Jeanie’s training and the introduction of Aracelli and Melvin as the best prior to this.
I just noticed Roger said “Think she has the hots for you” referring to Jeanie. That is one of the most insightful things he’s said in the entire comic.
That statement should have some sort of punctuation to convey how he’s saying it.
Finally she has her pretty blue eyes back. Yaa she is a little on the nutty side i would guess. I wonder if she even knows what and why she is doing this any more.
Heh, Jeanie looks totally exhausted. Neil should order her to get some sleep me’thinks.
Also, I know you focus more on your other comic, but I can’t help thinking you’ve got the update schedual mixed up. THIS one should be the constantly-updated! ^_- Lol.
You’re right Zhor… Maybe I should focus more on JeanieBottle.
I know! I’ll stop making JeanieBottle, make SailorSun.org a 4 comic a week update so I can get the comic finished sooner. THEN I can focus on more JeanieBottle updates.
If you are seriously asking, I wouldn’t care is SailorSun ended right now and Jeanie went 4 days a week. SailorSun has not been as interesting as Jeanie in ages.
Great plan! Throw a big online SS wrap party, maybe use the JB hiatus for some text exposition that would be time consuming in-comic, then come back here full time! Yeah! That’s the ticket!
(Ahem. I’m not a fan of SS myself, but I know many are, and I wouldn’t want to deprive them. But as I’ve said before, if you have to cut back, consider dropping one of the SS weekly updates first. Whatever, though, good luck on your training, and whenever you can update JB, I’ll be eager to read it. You seem to be getting into the meat of the story, and thanks for that!)
I am just grateful that you make your comics CD as I enjoy them quite a lot.
I too get withdrawal symptoms when the updates are delayed for whatever reason but understand that you probably have a life outside making the comics.
One question though, I am wondering why Rodge has not had “the treatment” yet. I though in the vegas chapter when he mentioned the bikinis it would have been a good time.
I think we’re getting set up for a “mis-hearing” situation. Rog says that he thinks Jeannie has the hots for Neil. Jeannie “hears” that the cute redhead has the hos for Neil. And the comedy begins.
Does Jeannie think that Neil might have the hots for the redhead and impersonate her? Does she ambush the redhead for daring to want her freeind (her man)? Does she try to shift the redhead’s interest to Rog? Or something else?
That interesting, Rodger is cautiously feeling out Neil as to why Natalie showed up at his door step. It looks like Rodger might have something less than pure motive here. But, then we kind of knew that about Rodger.
In the first two frames, it about Jeanie with Jeanie lessening then turn to Kendra. We don’t know what Kendra interest in, but, I am assuming that she the mole or secrete agent that stilling the company secretes. I assume that what Kendra is, because she usually show up when ever Neil and Rodger are dealing with company secretes. If I am right, it will add a slightly different twist to this story.
It the third frame Jeanie is doing what she always does, which is jumping to the wrong conclusion and jealous as hell to boot.
“I am assuming that [Kendra is] the mole or secret agent”
Why would you think that? What woman could possibly resist the charms of two alpha space geeks like Neil and Roger? My gosh, they probably have to carry pepper spray to fend off the engineering groupies.
I think you have both Neil and Roger over rated here. But, look at every time that she show up, it almost like she snooping around for something. There something really sneaky about her, almost like she hiding something from everyone. Kendra is what known as a sleeper. Then is “suprise”, look who I am and what I did.
This is only the second time Jean has used the “turning tiny to spy” bit so often used in the Barbara Eden series. I especially like the third panel; the perspective looks pretty good, with Jean(ie) looking upward at Kendra.
My guess is Jean is going to impersonate Kendra next.
Wait when was the first time? I was thinking this probably isn’t Jeanie because she doesn’t seem to have the experience/control to do this, oh wait I just noticed the pink poof in the first panel. Question still stands though when did she do this before?
I admit I would love to see Rodge’s reaaction if Neil reveals what happened that morning, he does know Jeanie used to be a guy right?
Neil told Rodger that he was Natalie and that Jeanie was Jean when they were in Los Vagas and Rodger was putting the move on Natalie. So Rodger know that Jeanie use to be a guy.

You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be actually something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complex and very broad for me. I’m looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
Boy, the relationships are getting pretty tangled-up, aren’t they?

Look at Jean(ie)’s eyes…
Is she under a spell? Or possessed? Or something else?
I think it’s lack of sleep
Given the large figure of Jeanie in the title art, “her” eyes are blue. Even in some close-ups before, CD didn’t include “her” eye colour.
Finally she has her pretty blue eyes back. Yaa she is a little on the nutty side i would guess. I wonder if she even knows what and why she is doing this any more.
She’s booked a trip on the crazy train.
She’s already on it!
She is the crazy train; see girl genius online dot com /comic.php?date=20141229

Sound like a plan?

Yes… That is why SailorSun.org is on it’s final chapter. Though I do plan on starting Wolfpac when SailoirSun.org is finished.

[CD, I am just now seeing your 12:23 post, which went up while I was composing.]
I like sailorsun

Ooh, tiny genie!
And Jeanie is still trying to get Neil in the sack.
I’m wondering if she really needs to sleep. Maybe she just does that out of habit, but now that she’s got something to do, she seems wide awake.
I think we’re getting set up for a “mis-hearing” situation. Rog says that he thinks Jeannie has the hots for Neil. Jeannie “hears” that the cute redhead has the hos for Neil. And the comedy begins.
Does Jeannie think that Neil might have the hots for the redhead and impersonate her? Does she ambush the redhead for daring to want her freeind (her man)? Does she try to shift the redhead’s interest to Rog? Or something else?
It’ll be fun finding out.

@Senko:I think Roge and Neil’s conversation in the first two panels is exactly that revelation and reaction.
Leading up to it definately not but not yet a reveal I think.
Jean’s no stranger to shrinking to ease-drop (like the TV Show Jeannie).
The first time was when she was hiding from Belle, around comic #19
https://jeaniebottle.com/?p=25
Ah I thought she was inside her bottle back then.
@Tom Sewell: My memories of the show are quite hazy, but didn’t Jeannie go to bottle size when eavesdropping? Our Jeanie’s a lot larger than that.
Also, I am have Rule 34 thoughts about tiny Jeanie and Neil. Mmmm, Rule 34…..
Yes, Jeanie in the TV series went to battle size several times, when she wanted to ease drop on people other people and didn’t want them seeing her.
Oh I think I just figured out or got a good idea as to how Agent Anderson could get involved.

Lookin’ pretty good at 83.
alright this is starting to bother me, why are there’s numbers on the knobs on the cabinet Jeannie is hiding by?
Because, that not a cabinet, it a computer tower and those numbers are hardrive 1 and 2.
Printer, paper tray one and two
Bthillman gets it. It’s resting on top of a file cabinet or desk.

Every weekend i used to go to see this web site, because i wish for enjoyment, since this this site conations in fact good funny stuff too.
Wow! Thank you! I continually needed to write on my site something like that. Can I include a part of your post to my website.
Note the dark lines under Jean’s eyes. These are sleep-deprivation decisions happening here.
