there is a way to put the dialogue in a way that is possible to understand whatit is said before and what is said after the other dialogue in the scene? I mean who talk first of the couple? for istance by putting one dialogue higher and the other lower? if not, shouldn't it exist..?

Most people tend to read left to right, so the person on the left tends to talk first

I think I remember reading on Wikipedia that only terrorists read right-to-left.

That's right. You're just going to have to adjust your comics to fit this standard. If other countries have other ways of doing it, they can just create their own fucking stripcreators.

so you have to change the position of the characters if you want for istance one to speak first in the first scene and last in the second scene, moving from left side to right side...? in my stupid country the first to speak is the one with the dialogue put higher than the other one, so they can stay always in the same side.
but never mind, forget it

No "never mind, forget it", it's part of dealing with the limits of the medium. Just like a sonnet is 14 lines of iambic pentameter, and you have to fit your poem into those parameters or it's not a sonnet anymore.

Part of the art is how you deal with or overcome the limitations.

In my country, a sonnet has 17 lines, 4 egg whites, and a troupe of squirrel monkeys.
