Comic Strip Title: "Marketing Name Change"

Summary:

The comic strip revolves around an engineering department's attempt to rebrand itself as "Marketing". The conversation unfolds as follows:

• A team member suggests renaming the department from "Engineering" to "Marketing".
• Another team member responds with "e-Engineering", implying a digital or online aspect.
• A third team member expresses skepticism about the proposal, stating that they are working on a similar idea for marketing but have not yet completed it.

The comic strip humorously highlights the challenges of rebranding and the potential for confusion or duplication of ideas within an organization.
