			Cosmos doesn’t actually have a Spanish accent, it’s a bad impression of Peter Lorre. Plus, it doesn’t make sense to try to have a picture of a sound. Maybe instead, we have a picture of IDW Brainstorm; either the MAAB/MARB scene or the KNEE-cro-titan scene.

	Someone who knows more about Japan, can you please throw something in here about the use of regional accents/dialects in Japanese media? I know Kansai is supposed to suggest a kind of naivety or bumpkin-like mentality, but I don't know much more than that. Are there other accents that are used similarly? And is there a 'default' sort of voice, like how most TFs from the Western fiction have that generic Midwestern news reader accent (or lack thereof?)
