“Honestly I don’t see how they could be teaching proper magic if THAT many children survive each year.”

Really!

Of course he’s evil! He’s blond, blue eyed and rich, in a British series! He might as well have a swastika carved in his forehead!

The text piece kind of puts me in mind of Rowan Atkinson’s ‘Fatal Beatings’ sketch. Watch it if you haven’t, it’s funny.

In reply to gabepuratekuta. Yes. He said so, right below the comic.

I love this re-draw, but I gotta say, Hagrid’s original phrasing in the first version felt more… in character. I could actually hear the big guy say it like that. New version not as much. Dumbledore’s “Say my name!” however, is PRICELESS!!! Keep up the good work!

Wait, wasn’t this a Faneurism comic? I feel that I’ve seen it before or something…

In reply to Lurlock.

At the Quidditch World Cup, there are American spectators, mentioned as having a banner saying they’re from Salem.
A species of dragon is called the Hungarian Horntail.
The Weasleys go on vacation in Egypt.
And there are kids at Hogwarts whose names imply ancestors from various Asian countries (Cho Chang and the Patil twins are the first to come to mind) and there are black kids, implying the existence at some point of Africa.

Just to add to the list 🙂

In reply to Lurlock. Bulgaria was Ireland's opponent in the quidditch game.

Romania is where Voldemort went after the curse rebounded on him. Viktor Krum and some other Durmstrang students were from Bulgaria, Durmstrang itself was somewhere in the northernmost part of Norway or Sweden.

No Russian references remembered, but I could be wrong.

Interesting that the US never gets so much as mentioned in the entirety of the HP series. As far as I can recall, the only other countries outside of the UK that we know even exist in the Potterverse are Ireland (from that one Quiddich game), France and Russia (from the Tri-Wizard Tournament). And I vaguely recall some eastern-European country being brought up – Romania? Hungary? I forget. Something about Voldemort’s backstory or some such.

Hogwarts is actually an American conspiracy to create a foreign school system that kills/dooms/turns evil more students than its own.
