Cast
Holly SmytheHolly is Melvin's crush. After the genie incident, Holly is aware that Melvin likes her, but there is a little too much strangeness surrounding Melvin and his friends for Holly's liking. Comics: 78 |
KazomKazom is a 3,000 year old genie. In order to conserve power and thereby extend his life, Kazom does as little magic as possible. He is bound in the form of the Clark family's cat and mostly just lays around Melvin's Room. Comics: 157 |
Melvin ClarkThe unofficial leader of the trio of friends. Melvin sees himself as the wise wizard of the party. Comics: 248 |
Tiffany "Red" ThorntonRed was a boy until a new genie tried to get Melvin a girlfriend. That's when the genie turned Red into a girl so Melvin could practice talking to girls, and forgot to turn her back before disappearing. Red is hopeful that her situation is only temporary. Comics: 226 |
Panel 2: “However, Dick had no loyalty to anyone but HIMSELF.” “he kept them to himself.” “until it was too late.” “his arcane treasures.” “but so to was his REWARD.” Panel 4: “Today it’s New Jersey, Tomorrow it could be Istanbul!” (a couple of them had unnecessary spaces.)
Fixed
ran out of space to put the “T” in “Today” in Panel 4, huh?
Fixed the T
Holly just pulled a Mihoshi! Wandering into an alternate space cut off from the rest of the universe seems to be a trademark of the Kuramitsu clan from Tenchi Muyo, and it looks like Holly might have the same capability….unless there is another explanation for her sudden appearance.
Wow, Kazom may want to rethink just how powerful or smart genies are after having Holly completely blow his last few statements out of the water.
It’s been previously established (in IDoaJB) that genies aren’t necessarily very bright. Kazom seems to be the smartest of the bunch, but even he’s not incapable of error.
It seems that when you have such immense cosmic powers, who needs intelligence?
At that level of power, the only smarts that you need is the sense to avoid the wrath of those few genies tougher than you.
I thought the Blue Djinn was a guy, not a girl. Unless this is taking place during the time the Blue Djinn was living in Jeanie. Is it?
Remember that Red, Melvin and BJ all went back in time to find the Azoth before it was given to Jeanie by Kazom. So the timeline matches up with the Blue Djinn still being a part of Jeanie at this point in the story.
Right. I forgot about that.
And Kazom giving the Azoth to Human Jeanie (and the subsequent destruction of the apartment in Cocoa Beach) will presumably happen towards the end of this arc, when Kazom will have the Azoth to give her.
They didn’t go back in time. It’s just that this storyline takes place concurrently with the Blue Djinn arc in JeanieBottle.
They didn’t go back. They are just still there.
Yay! I like Holly. I’d love to see her become a main character
