Yo, I can't help but notice that the female of the species is quite left out of your comic. Hey, man, there are a lot of female action figures out there as well as other sorts of female toys. Photoshopping boobs on a male toy doesn't quite cut it, even if it was extremely funny. Perhaps you could put some women in your next episode? Maybe a Jem doll or two?
Thank you, Jem and her under-represented Hos (short for Holograms, of course)

[there are a lot of female action figures out there as well as other sorts of female toysThis portion of your statement concerns me... Well, Jem, I feel your pain. The fact that women are underrepresented in ACT has occured to me before, as well. However, perhaps it should be considered a high compliment to women everywhere that every time I think of characters doing utterly stupid things, only males come to mind. In all actuality, ACT was never really intended to be a testosterone club. Robots are pretty much asexual; neither men nor women. Although words like "he", "him", and "brother" have been thrown around a lot recently, plus Poseidon pees while standing. Other than that, be careful not to assume too much! We still don't know what the heck the Blazing Turkey of Vengence is. Flamewing and the turkey recently got married, but whether it was done in Hawaii or not is anyone's guess. Kinda' scary to consider that Daniel is the clearest, most shining example of masculinity in the strip. Finally, there is a female character slated to make an appearance as a possible regular in the next few weeks. It's only one, but it's a start. Oh, and Jem, you are truly, truly outrageous. Thanks for writing.

Oh, and don't forget about Jean Grey. She may be orange and ugly, but she's all woman on the inside
