Comic Strip Title: "New Boss, Same Old Problems"

Summary:

The comic strip features Dilbert, a bespectacled office worker, and his new boss, Ed Fred. The conversation begins with Ed Fred introducing himself as the two-faced employee, which Dilbert finds amusing. However, when Ed Fred reveals that his new plan is to "stupid" Dilbert, Dilbert becomes concerned.

Dilbert asks if Ed Fred is serious about making him look stupid, and Ed Fred responds with a nonchalant attitude, saying he doesn't like the looks of the plan. Despite this, Ed Fred proceeds to implement the plan, leaving Dilbert frustrated and confused.

The comic strip pokes fun at the common office scenario where a new boss tries to impose their will on employees, often with disastrous results. The humor lies in the absurdity of Ed Fred's plan and Dilbert's deadpan reactions. Overall, the comic strip provides a relatable and humorous take on office politics.
