The Fellowship was fortunate enough to obtain a copy of GENIE
THE GENIUS #1 from APE Entertainment and After Hours Press. The stories are by Darren
Sanchez and Emily Sanchez, with art by Massimo Asaro and Fernando Peniche, colors
by Antonio Peniche and Fernando Peniche, and lettering by Marshall Dillon and Adrian
Martinez.
Meet Andy, a boy who is more interested in playing his
videogame than being on the fieldtrip to the museum. He gets lost and finds
himself in a storage room where he finds a lamp. Out from the lamp pops Genie,
a lower level genie who can only assist kids, not grant wishes. Genie helps out
Andy with this report by taking him back to the time of dinosaurs. They barely
get back and Andy is able to do his report the next day. A sign of things to
come?
In the backup tale “Emily’s Story,” Andy’s little sister
Emily is having a tea party and decides to invite him to join her and stuffed
animals. She witnesses the return of Genie and Andy from their adventure. Genie and (reluctantly) Andy join Emily for
tea. Emily suggests that she should join them on future adventures, much to the
dismay of Andy.
