I tried Harley Quinn from the batman series, knowing it was probably false. Was shocked to see the answer! Never knew her name was derived from that :P

Calvin and Hobbes is pretty good, but it was from a while ago, and is from the U.S. If you're from another country or younger, you may not have heard of it.

I was never a big comics guy, but I loved Calvin & Hobbes. I thought it was brilliant and very funny. Even inspired me one winter to make my own two-headed snowman in our front yard....just to crack my brother up. (he got me started with C&H) Best snowman I ever made. Definitely made my brother laugh. I wonder what the neighbors thought though? :-/

I didn't understand the grammar of the second question. When I finally managed to get the answer anyway, I realized that "faced" is supposed to be a noun.

H Answers Quiz #1 and #2 both include Hanoi as an answer. I'd suggest to change one of the clues to Vietnam's biggest city, Ho Chi Minh City.

"The Hexagon" is a very well known (well, common at least) nickname of Metropolitan France, just like Italy can be referred as "the Boot". You can even find the hexagon represented on the French national side of the 1€ and 2€ coins.

I don't understand the second one. Who or what is this "Helen"?

P.S.: found it - it seems that this quote is not so well known in german, at least I never heard it.

Maybe “First western person to climb Everest” would be more appropriate. We all know what you meant but its just not quite accurate.

I'm afraid to ask, but the political opposite of a dove is a hawk? I did not know that.

Same here. I managed to guess the opposite of a dove, but in my country, the terms warmonger and pacifist are typically used rather than war hawks and doves.
