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.
Oh, my the answers a dirty mind (such a one as *I* of course, do not possess) could make something … interesting … out of Jeannie’s last bit of dialog…
I dunno. It seems that aybe Jean has discovered that not all of his (her?) new super-powers are specifically metaphysically related. Just that bikini alone has a magical effect (I.Q. reducing) on one half of Earth’s populace.
We do know that she’s already a clothes-horse, considering that early page where she tried on a ton of different hyper-feminine costumes. So this doesn’t seem out of character.
Good gawd, y’all! Is Jeanie HITTING ON Neil? Look at those big violet eyes in the fourth panel? And that bikini is barely in compliance with the Cyberspace Comics Code Authority.
Another possibility is that now that Neal is her permanent master Jean is now hard wired to fall in love with him and that hard wiring is just beginning to manifest itself..
WOW! Jean seems to be turning into a tease & remember what Gene’s GF said way back that she thought Jan had a thing for Neal. do we hear ‘snicker’ wedding bells?
I too am surprised that Jean is currently wearing a bikini. One due to the fact that she still considers herself a male, and second due to what else she is carrying. If she goes for a ride on that surfboard, I predict a wardrobe malfunction.

Especially after “You have boobs, Jean”.
It seems odd Jean would choose to wear a bikini instead of a one-piece swimsuit, given his dislike of his current situation…

Where are the Beach Boys when we need them

Correction:
Look at those big violet eyes in the fourth panel!
She’s going to start teasing him more and more because she knows that he’ll be able to be controlled that way, especially after the sandwich incident.
Of course, over time she’ll probably really *like* doing it and be both happy and horrified at the same time.
Another possibility is that now that Neal is her permanent master Jean is now hard wired to fall in love with him and that hard wiring is just beginning to manifest itself..
I think she more “hopes” or “expects” than knows that Neil can be controlled.
It’s going to be an interesting game, though, particularly since it’s the master that’s supposed to control the genie, not the other way around.
Still…after her comment last comic, this is just downright cruel.
Well… this answers the ‘what time is it’ question.
But…
It seems like a dream sequence.
I think you’re right! And mighty “disturbing” dreams they are for Neil! 😀
WOW!
I concur.
It’s almost as if the traditional genie attire
over emphasizes the hips.
Several previous illustrations made her look bottom heavy.

Thanks, ROFLOL!

Nah. It’s a magic bikini – only come oiff if she wants it to.
Unless, of course, following Roger Rabbit’s First Axiom of Humour, it would be funny,,,
BTW, can anybody read the logo on Jeanie’s board?
I’m pretty sure i’ve seen it before, but…
Looks as if the second half says “John”
It appears to say
BUSH JOHN or BU8II JOIIN
SURF SHOP
or something along those lines.
It’s ‘Bush John Surf Shop’. I was originally going to go with ‘Ron Jon Surf Shop’, but decided to make a fictional place instead.
Ah, thanks. I know little of surfing….
Ah. Yes – i recall the Ron Jon logo, now.
It should have been BUSH JINN Surf Shop.
“Bush Jinn”? Boy am i glad i don’t have a dirty mind.
Definably unJean like, but …And is it me, or had Jean been getting smaller and more …uh…feminine proportioned?
No, it’s not just you. Compare this arm-in-arm with this side-by-side.
In the early one, Jean and Neil appear to be about the same height, in the later one Jean is several inches shorter, or is slouching.
Neil: “I think I just did.”
Jean: “GROSS, Neil!”
