Bug-Off — Ask Pippin: Language

Description This is the first in, hopefully, a new series of short comics starring two new characters to dA: Pippin and Wren.
The comic will go more or less in the same vein as Diago's Exploits. Short comics punctuated with jokes with no real plot connecting them. They will mostly consist of Wren asking Pippin questions about his life and what it's like traveling the multi-verse, as Pippin explores one strange landscape after another.

Not too happy with the art in this first one, but with any luck, I'll get better as I get used to the new characters.

That about sums it up.
Pippin is a know-it-all and Wren is a bright-eyed n00b.

AH! You've been gone for a while!
I knew you were missing when I posted that Beach Party Diago picture and got no reaction from you!

Gambling debt. Pippin has a lot of loan sharks after him and he needs to keep on the move.

You know, that is the best reason I've heard yet for dimension hopping.

I like this comic already.

Also, Pippin knows a lot of languages...does he ever get them mixed up?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

Bug-Off In reply to TBPow [2009-07-18 19:00:34 +0000 UTC]

It's only a lot of languages to us.
Eighty-seven doesn't even scratch the surface of the amount of languages that exist in the multi-verse.

What Pippin tries to do is memorize the ones that are the most common or the root of most other languages so that he can half-ass his way through if he has to.
