Uh oh. This is going to lead to shenanigans, I’m sure of it.
That looks like a Bong Converted Genie Bottle.
Neil looks a little different. Did CD change his hair style?
I can see where this is going.
Yes. Roommates break their bong, find Jeanie’s bottle and try to make a new bong, although I don’t think they can actually damage it (magical protections and all that). But that leads to Jeanie getting stoned and turning both of them into harem girls.
Alternately, based on the title, one of them steals her bottle and we have another instance of Jeanie granting wishes for someone else.
“… another instance of Jeanie granting wishes for someone else.”
With the same consequences as the greek captain.
…or Boss Hogg…
this won’t end well.
I wonder if we’ll be getting a surprise appearance of the Green Genie. https://jeaniebottle.com/archives/comic/jeanie-bottle-478
I’d really like her to return.
It would be very nice to see Jehane return. She got a seriously bum rap.
Well, if this is really just a regular bong, then I expect it to break somehow, and they go looking for a replacement, and will find Jeanies bottle.
Do we know these guys?
Neil’s roommates, mentioned just before the time travel shenanigans but afaik we haven’t seen before now. Someone had complained about someone using the shower, causing Jeanie to poof into Neil’s room before she got caught, where she complained about his roommates.
I got a bad feeling about that New Bong.
Who are these guys? Where are they?
After Jeannie blew up their old apartment at the end of the Blue Djinn arc, Neil moved into a shared house. These are his housemates.
Actually, Jeanie blew up Jean’s apartment. I don’t think a reason was given for Neil’s move into a shared house.
One of Jean’s early uses of her genie power was moving Neil’s studio apartment into her own batchelor pad–on an inside wall where there obviously was no room for it. Neil was rather disturbed by the apparent impossibility. So they lost both apartments when Jean was evicted.
Ah, yes. That makes sense except for the fact that this new place seems to have all of his old belongings. Also, there’s a mention that Jeanie had been “jailed” for at least 3 weeks and in panel 3 of page 569 it shows his bookcase in what appears to be his apartment.
The explosion blew a hole in the wall six feet wide. That probably wrecked the room, but stuff in the other rooms may have been undamaged.
Anyway, if Jean doesn’t like their current accommodations, she can always get them better ones.
Teenage boys, left alone. Shenanigans for sure.
I mean, shenanigans are kind of teenage boys’ purpose in life, right?
Good thing teenage girls would never, ever–scuse, someone’s at the door.
Yet this are suppose to be guys on there mid twenties… Oh whatever. On this day an age, people on their 30s still don’t know how to Adult.
It’ll be them that’ll take it easy.
If they are not going to work themselves they might be college boys. Now what could possibly go wrong. Oh Jeanie is not here yet.
Will we ever find out what happened to the former owner of the previous apartment? The old lady who used to be a genie and got bottled by Blue?
We can only assume that bailing Rouyaa out of that bottle was one of the things Jeanie was supposed to fix.
Except nobody knows about Rouyaa’s fate, and the Genie Council may not even care to check out on her given she has been living as a mortal for quite some time.
Wouldn’t Jeanie know? They were sharing the same body at that time as I recall.
glad to see the story continue.
I wonder if it’s occupied or empty. If occupied will it be someone new or someone we have already seen? If it’s empty, well, somebody’s gonna have a bad day.
If occupied they’re BOTH gonna have a bad day. I’m sure no genie would appreciate having their home filled with mind-altering, noxious gasses and dirty bong water.
SO! These are Neil’s housemates. What do they do? Are they students? Entrepreneurs in cannabis products? Losers? Does anybody still listen to sitar music while imbibing or is that a 60’s cliche?
On the other hand it may be a red herring.
I wonder if Jeanie’s problem isn’t that she had sex with her past self, but that she enjoyed it.

This post brought me here, I want to see that sexy brunette.
Welcome! Check out this link for all the pages that star Natalie, the “sexy brunette”.
Note that Th3go tends to draw her a bit… enhanced compared to her canon look.
This may be nothing, but the roommate with the red shirt seems to have a Tesla logo in the pocket area of his t-shirt. Could be just a detail with no significance, could be a totally different item (not Tesla), or could be a tiny bit of foreshadowing?
That’s certainly a “T” of some sort. But I don’t think Tesla makes red shirts like that. Their monogram shirts are usually black.
Their shirts may mostly be black (there is a red one), but the Tesla boxers are definitely red.
What happened to Rouyah/Ms. Eden? Remember that she was still stuck in her bottle the last time we saw her, and she lived in the same apartment building that Jeanie blew at least one large hole in?
We’re not sure. CD hasn’t covered that in-story, yet.
Hopefully we’ll find out sooner than later. 🙂
If Alcohol did a number on her… I am curious what being used a bong will do to Jeanie.
It wasn’t the alcohol per se, it was something in the moonshine that poisoned her. Araceli explained it on page 326.
There is one flaw in the theory that the roommates can turn Jeanie’s bottle into a bong. It was established on page 546 that a genie’s totem is defended by “hexes and protective magics” that only something as powerful as a car crusher can overcome. These stoners are not going to just drill a pipe hole into that bottle but waking an already unstable Jeanie by trying to use a power drill on it might prove interesting. Again, I foresee two new dancers at the Harem Club.
Given the chapter title, Jeanie is likely to be required to grant them wishes, but will probably do so in typical jerkass-genie twisted fashion.
Just curious, but where did these massive front windows come from? They weren’t there when we were shown the exterior of Neil’s home on page 615.
