Yeah I agree wholeheartedly, the_Bear. Unfortunately, women generally fear rejection just as much or even more than men, plus they fear the "slut" label being applied if they're judged too aggressive. Quite frankly, they can get away with being more passive in the romantic arena than men can. In RL, Marie would just start dating some cute boy who actually made the effort and took the risk to ask her out, while Alex stayed in his room jerking off to pictures and posters of his favorite celebrity crush, forever ignored by girls around him. A rather sad reality, but reality nonetheless.

Now I'm sure some guys will respond with examples of girls taking the initiative to ask them out. That will not change the fact that those will all have been exceptions to the general rule that if a guy does not assertively pursue girls who catch his eye and instead waits for them to come to him, that guy will end up home alone with his right hand and some lotion as his only romantic options.

You've just described me perfectly (minus the lotion part).

Sorry to hear that Don. But you know you're the only one who can change that right? I speak from experience here.

You may also have to watch out for chafing. You don't want abrasion or blisters.

Yes, Marie will have to cosplay as Sandra Arden cosplaying as Carmen Chamelia in order to get Alex's attention. Sooo meta.

Looks a bit tall for Metroplex. Fortress Maximus maybe?
Don't remember Fortress Maximus having that sort of headgear or shoulders though... But maybe. It's been a while.
Supposed to be Metroplex but I was drawing out of memory and now that I've looked back at some pictures, I see the stuff I did wrong in that panel, hah. Maybe when I have the time, I'll go back to fix it. (or fix it for print)
