COMIC 01
The Taxi Surprise
The businessman lands in the USA, asks for a ride to Manhattan, and quickly discovers that his driver is confident about driving — but not about English.
COMIC LESSONS
Funny, practical comics in the approved premium style.
Here the story follows a businessman on a work trip to the USA. The funny twist: the taxi driver speaks Spanish, not English, so they survive with good humour, clear phrases, and a lot of international cooperation.
THE STORY
Business trip → airport taxi → hotel → coffee → presentation → business lunch. Every comic card teaches practical English through one memorable situation.
COMIC 02
Survival English
He reaches the hotel, says thank you, and learns that business English sometimes needs a little survival Spanish.
COMIC 03
The Hotel Check-In
At the hotel desk, confidence, a passport, and a sense of humour make jet lag easier to manage.
COMIC 04
The Coffee Meeting

USEFUL PHRASES
Language from the first part of the trip
Could you take me to...?
Could you stop here, please?
I have a reservation under Daniel Reed.
Could I get a large coffee and a quiet table, please?
These lines are practical, polite, and easy to reuse during a real business trip.
THE STORY CONTINUES
From presentation panic to a calm business lunch.
The same businessman continues his trip. Each comic card keeps the approved premium style, the same characters, and practical English with a light joke.
COMIC 05
The Presentation Problem
The laptop is ready, the screen is shy, and a helpful colleague saves the day with one cable and perfect timing.
COMIC 06
The Business Lunch
Lunch goes well, but the true business priority arrives at the end: the bill, the receipt, and peace for the accountant.
MORE USEFUL PHRASES
Language you can borrow from the second part
Excuse me, the laptop is ready, but the screen is still shy.
Try this cable.
Could we have the bill, please? I also need the receipt.
My accountant will trust this more than my memory.
These lines are useful for meetings, presentations, and business lunches.
Read the comic
Follow the plot in order and notice how each new problem creates a new practical phrase.
Retell the trip
Retell the story in your own words: airport, taxi, address, traffic, hotel, coffee, presentation, and lunch. This builds speaking fluency fast.
Change the situation
Replace Manhattan with your city, change the hotel, make the meeting earlier, or move the lunch to dinner to practise the same English differently.
