AI Analysis

Comic Strip Title: "Sources"

Summary:

The comic strip features a conversation between a man and a woman in an office setting. The man, seated at a desk, asks the woman, "My sources tell me that you're not meeting your objectives." The woman responds, "That's not true. Who are these sources? Name one objective I haven't met."

The man then says, "I don't even know what your objectives are." The woman retorts, "Must... control... fists."

This exchange highlights the woman's frustration with the man's lack of understanding and her desire to assert control over her work. The comic strip humorously portrays the challenges of communication and goal-setting in a professional setting.
