Comic Strip Title: "The Rumor Mill"

Summary:

The comic strip revolves around a rumor that has spread through the office, claiming that one of the employees is dead. The story unfolds as follows:

  • The first panel shows an employee approaching a coworker with a concerned expression, asking if the rumor is true.
  • The second panel reveals that the coworker is the one who started the rumor, and he's now trying to cover his tracks.
  • The third panel shows the employee who started the rumor leaving the office, carrying a briefcase and looking nervous.
  • The fourth panel features the original employee who asked about the rumor, looking shocked and confused.

The comic strip humorously highlights the spread of misinformation and the consequences of starting false rumors in the workplace. It pokes fun at the absurdity of office gossip and the ways in which rumors can quickly escalate out of control.
