AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Personal Ad"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled man with a distinctive appearance, sitting on a couch with his dog. He is engaged in a conversation with another man, who asks why women write letters to men in prison. Dilbert responds that he would commit a crime to go to prison if it meant he could improve his social life. The man then inquires about Dilbert's personal ad, which reads: "That's more of a last resort." The punchline is that Dilbert is using the ad as a means to meet women, but it is not working, leading to his humorous response.
