Three wishes

In the fourth panel the smart genie just says.

“As you wish” and promptly teleports away with his lamp.

Regardless of how you interpret it, 3 wishes are spend and nothing more needs to change or happen

Genie cuts your head off for trifling with them because they are powerful demons and not computers.

One of my favorite examples of a similar kind of self-referential language loop is the following:

This sentence has threee erors.

Oh that's so fucking clever. I kept looking for the third error and after a good 15 seconds it hit me. That's delightful.

This isn't really a paradox.

On panel 3, the genie ignores the first wish, which means the wish in panel 1 never happens. Guy gets 1 wish back, but because he wished for his 3rd wish to not be fulfilled, that wish will do nothing. Genie peaces out because his job here is done.

I'm sure they'll make an exception when it works against the person making the wishes.
