Description
After a short time, Amelia returned with Sami in tow.“Hello Martha. It appears to have become a custom that I have to rescue you, eh?” Sami coaxed.
“It seems so!” Martha admitted. She didn’t share Sami's humor at the moment. “Can you guys get me out of this, please?”
“If “someone” would wish for it.” Sami explained and looked at Amelia. Amelia stared back with fearful eyes.
“Listen to me, Amelia. Now you have to wish that I will be freed from this crystal ball. Do you understand?” Martha asked. Amelia nodded. “And Sami, you won’t do anything else but let me out of here. If you twist her wish in any way, I’ll be very, very angry with you.” Martha added.
“Ok, then I wish that Marta will be released from her prison.” Amelia stated her wish.
“Your wish is granted!” Sami said and blinked. A crack appeared in the crystal ball and, with a loud noise, it broke open.
Within seconds, Martha grew back to her original size. She rushed forward and embraced Sami. Sami hugged her back. Both genies stood in the room for a moment. Then Martha moved away from Sami. She faced Amelia: “Thank you very much! If there is a wish you have for yourself, feel free to state it.”
“I’d like some cheese, if that is possible?” Amelia asked.
“Cheese?” Martha replied, totally surprised. “Ok, if that is your wish.” She blinked and a big swiss cheese appeared in front of Amelia.
Amelia took a knife from her apron and cut a small piece from the cheese, which she started to nibble. “That’s a lot of cheese! I better bring it to my room.”
After Amelia had left, Martha spoke to Sami. “Will you come to my place? There are a few things I want to talk to you about.”
A few minutes later, Martha and Sami were sitting in Martha’s lamp. “Sami, this has been a nightmare! This man has another genie and he intends to enslave me forever. And this genie is much more powerful than I am. She easily defeated me. How is that possible?”
“Calm down Martha. I’ll explain it to you.” Sami replied. “The power of a genie increases with his or her experience. Generally, you can say that the older a genie is, the more powerful he or she becomes. I’m over 4000 years old, so I’m a quite powerful. The genie who trapped you is quite old too but much younger than I am. That’s why I could break her magic.”
“And I’m just a rookie?” Martha concluded the chain of thought. Sami nodded.
“What can I do to prevent her from using her magic against me, again? Or from Adam enslaving me, forever? Somehow, he can force me to grant him any wish he wants. It’s really painful.” Martha explained.
“He has the same knowledge as Mardita.” Sami explained. “But you can still twist his wishes so he can’t state a new wish anymore.
“But what about the other genie…” Martha asked.
“Mhhh… You can’t subdue her by force. Maybe you can make her your ally? Since she’s also enslaved, she might be willing to help you overcome Adam?”
“I don’t think so. It appears that she’s granting him wishes for free. I wouldn’t be surprised if she’s actually in love with him. If I can’t get her on my side, I’m in really big trouble…” Martha paused for a moment. Then she had an idea. “Maybe there’s another way to get rid of him.”
“What do you mean?” Sami asked.
“I’ll explain it to you later. Now I have to hurry before Adam returns. Besides, a genie would never come up with this plan.” Before Sami could protest, Martha had streamed out of the lamp.

Yes, it's the most extensive comic page I did for Martha until today. But if you look on my history comics, they are often extensive too. History comics: [link]

To be fair those aren't colored and none of them come near this comic strip except for "TWH: a German revolution". Which I have to admit was quite humorous.

I really like the pic of martha in the ball! It's like a classic pin-up pose. I hope you make a larger pic of her in that pose.

If you like, I can do such a picture for you as reward for the next story (that I'm writing at the moment).
Would you like to have Martha or another genie inside the crystal ball?
Would you like the pose in panel 3 (Martha raises her arms in protection) or a slighly different pose?

Yup! I was even thinking about Martha giving him a kiss. But I'll keep that open for later.
