Lol, Marie thinks like Gary.

Looks like she's idolizing Zoé a lot too.

What do you know? I was right about the jogging gear. Anyway, the good news for Alex is that he is now a sex object for a cute girl. The bad news is that girls expect their sex objects to look the part.

Not sure that jogging is going to give him abs, though. Which in fact Marie seems to realise, as she's talking about this as a "first step". Oh dear. Gym membership coming up.

And yes, it does look like Zoé has another fan.

Hey, maybe this comic usnt about Sandra being a model as we've been led to believe. Maybe it's really a harem comedy about Zoé :-P

Btw, if Marie studies dance, shouldnt she already be in good shape and working out?

Actually, her upper arms struck me as quite impressive in this strip - and hey, she's hardly overweight.

The dancing certainly should do something for her, but I understand that trained dancers aren't always in as great shape as you'd think. Too much physical stress, too much obsession with being thin, no very systematic approach to diet or training.

I am fine with this being the new dynamic, mostly since Zoe would be the best harem protagonist :D

By the way, the Atari Jaguar is older than Alex himself. I get that he's a serious student of the history of his hobby, but doesn't he have any failure metrics from within his own lifespan?

Hey! I liked the Atari Jaguar!

Aliens vs. Predator was awesome for it's day!

And... and... Aliens Vs Predator, dammit!

actually, serious gamers would find work outs beneficial

most tournaments are LOOOOOOONNGGGGGG and ones with better stamina should be able to handle long hours of hands and arms use(sometimes legs if we talking wii style games)

just like top car race drivers workout

Strip Nintendo? Where could she pick up such an idea like that. ;)

It's good to get exercise, but Alex is in better shape than the average gamer and this could have a way of backfiring on Marie. Alex doesn't think of her in the same way she thinks of him. Six-pack abs could draw the attention of other girls.

This brings memories of the 1500m in Decathlon on the Atari 600 and Commodore 64...

:)) Oh man, Marie is so selfless here. :))

Seriously though, working out helps when you want to have long gaming sessions. It helped back in the day when I did raids in WoW.

Is that "kit" or "nice and strong"? Anyway, I think that these three's British origins are entirely established by now.
