Thats curious, there are multiple Russian and even Soviet-era characters which I don't think western people know about.

I learned of this site via HN a few years back and someone mentioned that the author must be Russian and mentioned the characters from Kin Dza Dza. A quick search revealed the film is freely available on Youtube with English subtitles. It's a great film and thankful for floor796 in revealing it as well as being an amazing work of art.
The two language options are English and Russian.
You can click characters to show who they are, as well.
Definitely too many to be random. I think they are all mostly soviet era things, no? So the author is likely an émigré from the USSR.
Why émigré? He is probably Russian.
Well, not to put too fine a point on it, but it would be more correct to say that the author/artist is likely from a country that uses the Cyrillic script.
