That's an underappreciated aspect of Mark Trail. The characters are oblivious to, or unperturbed by, their existence in a world populated by mutated giant beasts or animals with sticks growing out of them (Olaf noticed that a few days ago).

Yeah, the building always gets the best lines. Also, the window behind him makes no sense at all, he's in a glass tower.

Yes, Mark, your phone is ringing. It's understood that you should answer it.

So Bill Ellis is the only one who calls him? Or does he have some strange 6th sense?
