We don’t all speak the same language, you know!

In movies or TV shows, it may be tempting to make simplifications to make it easier for the target audience to understand. For instance, how many Nazis actually spoke English with that ridiculous German accent? This may have been acceptable 40 or 50 years ago, but in our global society, this type of shortcut can be a little ridiculous. On the TV series “24,” you see Arab bad guys talking English even when they are alone together. We use different languages in the webcomic not because we want the viewer to feel lost, but because we want to give the story setting more credibility.
